If you want to make a sauce to serve with the omelette, put the chicken stock in a saucepan with the soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, chilli flakes and sugar. Stir over a low heat to heat through. Mix the cornflour with a little water to make a smooth paste, then pour this into the sauce and stir until the sauce has very slightly thickened. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Keep warm.

To make the omelette, heat half the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. When hot, add the pork mince, spring onions, garlic and ginger and fry quickly until the pork is browned all over and just cooked through. Pour in the soy sauce, mirin and 2 tablespoons of water. Simmer for a couple of minutes, then drizzle over the sesame oil. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.
