Omelette~bursting with colour

24 January, 2014 By Clarice Hebblethwaite 1 Comment

Omelette 1

Omelette bursting with colour

This omelette makes a great breakfast or lunch or equally a great dinner! Eggs are rich in protein and when combined with vegetables, give sustaining energy. So an omelette at breakfast sets me up for the day really well. And best of all, it tastes amazing!

Omelette 2

Omelette- the ingredients

Omelette 3

Omelette- mixing eggs, water, salt and pepper

Omelette 4

Omelette- chopped silverbeet (swiss chard) and tomatoes

Omelette 5

Omelette- egg mixture into the pan with some oil

Omelette 6

Omelette- cooking the egg a little before adding the vegetables

Omelette 7

Omelette- adding chopped vegetables to cook for 2 to 3 minutes

Omelette 8

Omelette- folded over and served onto the plate, yumm!

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 TBS water
  • grind of salt and pepper
  • 2 handfuls of green leaves e.g. spinach, kale, silverbeet (swisschard)
  • 6 cherry tomatoes or 2 tomatoes chopped
  • About 1 TBS Oil – either olive oil or I prefer the taste of coconut oil combined with this omelette

Method

  1. Mix the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water, a grind of salt and pepper.
  2. Chop the green leaves and tomatoes.
  3. Place a tablespoon of olive oil or coconut oil to heat in a fry pan.
  4. Pour in the egg and spread over the base. Allow it to start cooking on a medium heat, for about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Once you see the egg start to set, spread the vegetables over the egg and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the green leaves have slightly wilted.
  6. Carefully, using a large spatula or slice, loosen the omelette from the base of the pan and fold over in half.
  7. Lift out onto a plate to serve. Enjoy every mouthful:)
