Heat 1 tbsp chilli oil in a small nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add the rice and toss to coat for 2 minutes. Press the rice to evenly coat the base of the pan and let it crisp for 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk together with 1 tsp fish sauce. Pour over the crisp rice and cook covered until just set, about 3 minutes.

To make the salad dressing, whisk together the remaining fish sauce, sugar, lime juice and sesame oil. Then chop the herbs, finely slice or julienne the spring onion, cucumber and green chilli and toss into the dressing.

Slide your omelette onto a plate and top with the herby salad. If you want more heat, dot over extra chilli crunch oil.
