Omelet With 3 Variations Recipe
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 tbsp half-and-half
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1 tbsp butter
Instructions:
Break the eggs into a bowl, add half-and-half, season with salt and pepper
and beat lightly with a fork.
Melt butter over medium-low heat in a small nonstick skillet. Add eggs and
cook 12 minutes mixing constantly with a wooden spoon to ensure the bottom
cooks without browning. Cook 2 minutes more without mixing. The omelet
is ready when it begins to dry around the edges but is still soft in the
center.
Remove pan from heat, top with filling (see below) and fold in half.
• Sausage and Tomato Omelet: Add 1/4 cup crumbled cooked sausage and 2
tablespoons diced tomatoes to the above recipe. Cook them in a pan with
the melted butter until hot; add the egg mixture, and proceed according to
above directions.
• Spinach and Feta Cheese Omelet: Warm 1/4 cup chopped, cooked spinach
with 1/4 teaspoon dill weed in a separate pan, with 2 tablespoons crumbled
feta cheese. Prepare omelet as indicated above, adding the warmed spinach
mixture just before folding in half.
• Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Omelet: Make omelet as indicated in basic
recipe above, adding 3 teaspoons of cream cheese and 2 tablespoons chopped
smoked salmon just before folding. Garnish with chopped chives.
This recipe yields 2 servings.
Comments: There are two ways to fill an omelet: include fillings in the
egg mixture or add before folding in half.
Description:
"French chefs say the most attractive omelet is not browned at all. Its
the color of scrambled eggs. So, cook over moderate temperature, stirring
constantly at first."
