Amber's Super Affordable Meals

I remember the time a friend of mine invited us to her birthday party in Amber - the bar in The Fort Strip. Then another friend of mine approached me with a weird look on his face and said "Paano siya magpaparty dun?" I replied by saying "Huh?! Edi paparty lang! Anong paano?" then he suddenly said "Diba masarap pancit dun?" 

I had this "ang labo mo" look on my face then I said "Ewan! May pancit ba dun even?" 

It was the first time this evening that I understood what he was saying! During our Halloween Party at work, I was looking at the food they ordered - pancit, chicken lollipop and barbecue. The packaging says Amber Golden Chain of Restaurants. 

"Ah!!! Eto pala yun!!" 

When we started eating, I got chicken lollipop, pancit and pichi-pichi and everything was sooooooooo good! It's also very affordable. 

Amber has a lot on their menu. You can contact them for catering services or just have food delivered to wherever during house parties, food trip, whenever! :) They also have packed food combinations good for events, picnics, etc.

Simple Cooking: Omu Rice

Whenever I'm bored at home, I check out our refrigerator and see what I can cook with what we have at home. I decided to make Omu Rice for dinner since it was an easy recipe with very simple ingredients needed. 

Omurice or omu-rice (オムライス Omu-raisu) is an example of modern Japanese cuisine that consists of rice, chicken, various meats, veggies and a thin sheet of fried egg. 

It's basically like an omelette! It is very popular in western style restaurants in Japan and South Korea.

Here's my own version of Omu-Rice

Ingredients:

4 medium/large sized eggs

5 cloves of garlic 

1 onion bulb (red/white)

1 carrot

1 bell pepper

4 cups of rice

5 tbsps Soy sauce

A dash of salt and pepper

2 Chicken Fillets

3 slices of Spam

3 slices of Bacon

Cooking oil

Mince the onion and garlic. 

(set aside)

Cut the carrots, bellpepper, chicken spam in bacon into little cubes/squares.

(set aside)

Put the bacon in the pan first. As soon as you can see the oils ooze out, add the chicken and the spam. Add salt and Pepper.

(set aside)

Put oil in the pan, add the carrots, bell pepper, garlic and onion respectively. this is because carrots take more time to cook than the others. 

Add the cooked plain rice, drizzle with soy sauce (it's up to you to adjust the amt of soy sauce). Mix all the ingredients. As soon as the white rice is brown (because of the soy), add in all the meat and mix together. 

Scramble 1 egg at a time in a bowl and fry it on a separate pan. it should look like crepe. :) 

After everything is cooked, use a cup/bowl to shape the rice on your plate, then just cover it with the egg. Top with tomato ketchup and Japanese mayo to finish. 

*You have the option to change the ingredients used, I also cooked Omu Rice using fish tofu instead of Spam and bacon. :)
