INDIAN OMELET



Indian Omelet image

I don't know why it is, but I am not a fan of American-style omelets. I love eggs scrambled, coddled, poached, soft and hard boiled . . . but there's something about that thick carpet of egg in omelets that just doesn't sit right with me! Perhaps it's because this is the first omelet I ever had- thin (but not as thin as a crepe-like French omelet) and packed with fresh flavors. It's the kind of thing I whip up at almost any hour of the day (it's really great after you've been out and had one drink too many!). To this day, Mum will make this as a light lunch when she doesn't feel like cooking anything too strenuous. The potato chips are my American touch to this Indian standby.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs
3/4 cup minced red onion (about 1/2 medium onion)
1 small serrano chile, seeded and minced
Small handful fresh cilantro, minced (about 2 tablespoons), plus extra leaves for garnish
3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
3/4 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly
ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable, canola or grapeseed oil
Small handful coarsely crushed potato chips (about 1/4 cup; optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs until slightly frothy. (If you are not in a hurry, you can go the extra mile: Separate the eggs and beat the egg yolks in one bowl, the egg whites in another, until very frothy. Gently fold the yolks into the whites. This will make a much lighter omelet!)
  • Carefully stir in the onion, chile, cilantro, turmeric and paprika and add couple of generous pinches of salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a medium (10 to 12 inch) non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Keep a heatproof spoonula (a curved, spoonlike spatula) at the ready. When the oil starts to shimmer, pour in the egg mixture.
  • Using your spoonula, stir the egg mixture in small circular motions to distribute the onions, chile and cilantro evenly around the pan. This also helps move some of the uncooked egg down to the surface of the hot pan. Sprinkle the potato chips (if using) evenly over the top.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pan, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Meanwhile, grab a plate that's as big as your pan.
  • Check your omelet. It's all right if it's not fully cooked, but it shouldn't be super-runny. If it is, cover the pan and cook for 1 minute more. Slide the omelet, cooked side down, onto the plate. Then, holding the plate from underneath, place your pan over the plate and flip the omelet back into the pan. The omelet should land with its uncooked side down. Cook, uncovered, for another minute.
  • Slide the omelet onto a serving plate, cut it into 4 wedges and serve with fresh cilantro leaves on top!
  • Smaarti Tip
  • Don't omit the serrano chile even if you don't like spicy foods. Scrape out the seeds and use just the flesh; that slight bitterness really makes this omelet sing.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups dry white beans (I used a 16 oz package of the small white ones)
1 ham bone
1 marrow, bone

  • Add the cabbage, potato, rice, pasta shells, garbanzo beans and salt and pepper.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Vegetable     Mushrooms     Stuffed Mushroom Recipes

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large portobello mushrooms
1 (8 ounce) bottle Italian-style salad dressing
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
¼ cup butter
1 stalk celery, diced
½ cup crab meat, fresh or canned
20 buttery round crackers, crushed
⅔ cup Italian blend shredded cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven's broiler. Clean mushrooms, and remove stems, reserving them for later. Marinate the mushroom caps in Italian dressing for 15 minutes. Remove from marinade, and place into a baking dish.
  • Broil at least 6 inches from heat for about 10 minutes. Check occasionally to make sure they do not burn. Turn off the broiler, and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Chop reserved mushroom stems. Sautee onion, garlic, mushroom stems and celery until tender. Add the crabmeat, and heat until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet mixture to a medium bowl, and mix in crackers, 1/3 cup of the cheese blend, and mix until well blended. Use some of the Italian dressing marinade to hold the mixture together if necessary. Pack the crab mixture into the cavities of the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven, and sprinkle remaining cheese over the tops, then return to the oven for 3 minutes, or until cheese has melted.

Tips:

  • Choose the best quality mushrooms. Look for portobello mushrooms that are of medium size with tightly closed gills. The caps should be firm and smooth.
  • Slice the mushrooms evenly. This will ensure even cooking.
  • Cook the mushrooms over medium heat. This will help to retain their flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. This will prevent them from steaming and becoming soggy.
  • Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The type of cheese you use will affect the flavor of the omelet.
  • Cook the omelet over medium-low heat. This will help to prevent it from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Flip the omelet carefully. Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelet and then flip it over.
  • Serve the omelet immediately. This is when it is at its best.
