Nyonya Cincalok Omelette 娘惹咸虾酱煎蛋

The other day i cooked this Nyonya cincalok omelette to enjoy with porridge for a light lunch.. Tasted like shrimp paste /belacan fried eggs, and one item you must add in this omelettle is onion, the sweetness from onion just perfectly contrast with salty cincalok (fermented small shrimps).



I bought this blue patterned enamel plate from Bali, and noticed they also like to use this kind of Chinese made enamel plates..And today i found another nice enamel plate, check out last picture in this post..
