A nice, simple omlet:
In a small amount of butter, saute some veggies (onions, mushrooms... whatever you like and have available). Remove the veggies from the pan.
Cook whatever kind of meat you'll be using, such as sausage, bacon, grilled chicken, or anything else you like. Remove meat from the pan.
Scramble 3 or 4 eggs into a bowl, add about 2 Tablespoons of water (to make it fluffy), then cook the eggs in an omlet pan in which you've melted a little more butter, "pulling" the eggs just a little to constantly keep raw egg moving into contact with the pan surface.
Once the egg starts to look "done" or near done, add the veggies and meat and grate cheese over it all. Then fold half of the omlet over and let the cheese melt.
Serve hot with your choice of sour cream, salsa and hash-browns.
I'm hungry now, I think I'll go cook some omlets for the family.
The plainest omelete would be either egg omelette or cheese omlette
2 or 3 eggs, in bowl, add grated cheese if cheese omelette
whip with a fork,
have oil, not too much oil, in pan heated
pour mix into the pan leave it for 1 min or so
shake the pan a few times
leave for 3 or 4 mins to cook
(depending on how much mix-if its a lot it will need a bit longer to cook)
shake the pan,
turn it over when its cooked on the outside without looking burned
(it may be difficult to turn as egg still runny on non cooked side,so you can cut it into sections and turn the sections) leave it again to settle for a min or so
shake
leave to cook 3 mins or so
check progress, leave or take out depending on progress
any other ingredients you want to add, all you do is add them to the mix before you pour
(For bigger omelettes double or treble the recipe). Don't mix anything. Put it all in a (non-stick) frying pan over a low heat. Stir it slowly with something with a flat end, so you can move the egg off the bottom as soon as it is cooked. Mix it so you still have bits of white and bits of yellow. Lift the pan off the heat just before it is cooked, because it will keep on cooking in the pan, and there's nothing worse than a dry omelette. That's it. Put it onto a slice of buttered wholemeal toast. Yum!
Oops, sorry. That's really a scrambled egg. Still, not much difference. Still delicious!
