Wakame Prawn Omelette

I got a pack of fresh wakame from my mother-in-law and happened to come across this recipe by Shirley Tay. Decided to give this a try since my kids love prawn and eggs! As the fresh wakame is rather salty, it has to be rinsed a few times to reduce the saltiness. Not much seasoning is needed while cooking the omelette, just add some salt sparingly with dash of pepper and sesame oil. Fresh, crunchy prawn embedded in the flavourful omelette which the kids love to bits and disappeared in no time when served.
