Best 7 Boiled Omelets Recipes

CAMPING MADE EASY: BOIL-IN-BAG OMELET

Steps:

• Boil a large stock pot of water.
• Mix the eggs & the 1 teaspoon of water in a quart size Zip Lock heavy duty (freezer type) baggie (to scramble) and smoosh it quite a bit.
• Add in the desired choice & amount of cheese, pre-cooked meat & veggies to the baggie. Seal (zip) the top (removing as much air as possible) and mix everything by squishing the bag. Be sure to season to your liking (salt, pepper, oregano, chili flakes etc. ) before sealing the baggie.
• Place each baggie (zipper side up) into the boiling water, and keep an eye on them. Reposition the baggies if they sit too long against the side of the pot. They usually cook in about 10 minutes to be done, but depending on how many you are cooking and the size of the pot, it may take a little longer or shorter. Just watch them is all you need to do.
• Enjoy this fun & fantastic omelet.
• Some suggestions: Make them spanish with salsa, cilantro and pre-cooked chorizo. Make them Italian with mozzarella, tomato and pepperoni. Chicken cordon Bleu with pre-cooked chicken, swiss and ham. The possibilities are endless!

OMELET IN A BAG

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a 1-quart, resealable, boil-proof (FDA-approved) bag, then seal and smush the eggs to scramble them. Add the cheese, pepper, tomato, onion, ham, mushrooms, salt and pepper, then shake everything together. Squeeze the excess air out of the bag and seal.
• Put the bag in the water and simmer until the mixture is set, about 15 minutes; use tongs to remove the bag from the water. Open the bag, roll out the omelet onto a plate and garnish with the chives.

PERFECT OMELET

Steps:

• Beat the eggs: Soak 3 large eggs for 5 minutes in hot-not scalding-tap water. This will ensure that the omelet cooks faster, and the faster an omelet cooks, the more tender it's going to be. Crack the eggs into a small bowl or large bowl-shaped coffee mug. Season with a pinch of fine salt. Beat the eggs gently with a fork.
• TIP: I prefer a fork to a whisk for omelets because I don't want to work air into the eggs: Air bubbles are insulators and can slow down cooking if you're not careful.
• Heat the pan: Heat a 10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium to high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon room-temperature unsalted butter. Once melted, spread the butter around the pan with a basting brush to ensure coverage.
• TIP: Heat your pan empty for a few minutes before adding the butter: Even a nonstick surface is pocked with microscopic pores that eggs can fill and grab hold of. Heat expands the metal, squeezing these openings shut.
• Add the eggs: Pour the eggs into the center of the pan and stir vigorously with a silicone spatula for 5 seconds. (Actually, it's not so much a matter of stirring with the spatula as holding the spatula relatively still and moving the pan around to stir the eggs.)
• Let them cook: As soon as curds begin to form (that's the stuff that looks like scrambled eggs), lift the pan and tilt it around until the excess liquid pours off the top of the curds and into the pan. Then use the spatula to shape the edge and make sure the omelet isn't sticking. Move the spatula around the edge of the egg mixture to help shape it into a round and loosen the edge. Then walk away. That's right-let that omelet sit unaccosted for 10 long seconds so it can develop a proper outer crust. Don't worry: Your patience will be rewarded.
• Finish the omelet: Time for the "jiggle" step: Simply shake the pan gently to make sure the omelet is indeed free of the pan. Lift up the far edge of the pan and snap it back toward you. Then use the spatula to fold over the one-third facing you.
• Change your grip on the pan handle from an overhand to an underhand and move to the plate, which you might want to lube with just a brief brushing of butter to make sure things don't bind up in transit. Slide the one-third farthest from you onto the plate and then ease the fold over. Imagine that you're making a tri-fold wallet out of eggs-because that's exactly what you're doing. And just ease the pan over. There, that wasn't so hard.

EASY OMELET IN A BAG

Steps:

• Put eggs, bacon, Cheddar cheese, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and salt in a resealable sandwich bag; seal. Shake vigorously until thoroughly mixed. Squeeze out any excess air and reseal.

OMELET IN A BAG

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a large resealable freezer bag. Press out most of the air, and seal. Shake or squeeze to beat the eggs. Open the bag, and add the ham, cheese, onion, green pepper, tomato, salsa, and mushrooms. Squeeze out as much of the air as you can, and seal the bag.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place up to 8 bags at a time into the boiling water. Cook for exactly 13 minutes. Open the bag, and let the omelet roll out onto a plate. The omelet should roll out easily.

GOLDEN NOODLE SOUP WITH SOFT-BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil and carefully lower in the eggs using the slotted spoon. Set a timer for 7 mins if you like your eggs a little runny in the middle, or 8 mins for a set yolk. Have a bowl of cold water nearby. When the timer beeps, scoop the eggs from the hot water using your spoon and plunge them into the cold water. Set aside to cool.
• Fill a medium saucepan with enough water to come halfway up the side of the pan. Bring the water to the boil over a high heat, reduce the heat, then lower in the noodles and season the water with a pinch of salt. Cook for 5 mins, or until just cooked - test one noodle to see if it's done. Drain the noodles and drizzle over 1 tbsp oil while they're in the colander. Toss the oil through the noodles to prevent them from sticking together.
• Peel the garlic cloves and crush them to a paste using a garlic crusher.
• Pour the remaining 1 tbsp oil into the medium saucepan (no need to wash it first), and turn the heat to medium. Add the garlic and ginger, stirring for 1 min until sizzling, then add the turmeric and stir for another 30 secs.
• Add the stock, coconut milk, soy sauce and sugar to the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer and bubble, for 2 mins.
• Cut the sugar snap peas in half on an angle, then drop them into the hot soup and cook for 1 min. Thinly slice the spring onions.
• Divide the noodles between four shallow bowls. Use a ladle to spoon over the hot soup and sugar snap peas. Carefully peel the eggs, then cut them in half and serve 2 halves on top of each serving of noodles, before scattering with the spring onions and coriander.
