OMELET FOR TWO



Omelet for Two image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 pound good thick-cut bacon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup medium-diced Yukon gold potato
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno pepper
5 extra-large eggs
2 tablespoons milk or cream
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped scallions, white and green parts
4 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, diced, plus extra grated cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cut the bacon crosswise in 1-inch slices. Cook the bacon in an 8-inch ovenproof saute pan over medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Drain the bacon on paper towels and discard the fat from the pan. Add the butter to the pan, and then add the potato and yellow onion. Cook over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the onion starts to brown and the potato is tender but firm. Add the jalapeno pepper and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together with a fork. Stir in the scallions and diced Cheddar. When the potato is cooked, add the bacon to the pan and pour over the egg mixture. Place the pan in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until the omelet puffs and the eggs are almost cooked in the center. Sprinkle with a handful of grated Cheddar and bake for another minute. Serve hot directly from the pan.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
6 ounces boiled ham (in one piece), cut into 1/2-inch dice
4 scallions (white and green), roughly chopped
1/2 cup grated white cheese (about 2 ounces), such as Monterey Jack, cheddar, or Gouda (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, beat together 3 of the eggs and season lightly with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a small non-stick skillet, with tight-fitting lid, over medium heat. Add the peppers and cook, covered, without stirring, until tender, about 3 minutes. Uncover and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the ham and scallions and cook, stirring frequently, until hot, about 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  • Melt a nut-sized piece of the remaining butter in the skillet over medium heat. When the foam subsides, add 1/4 of the pepper mixture. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, stirring constantly with a heat-resistant rubber spatula, until just cooked, about 30 seconds. Turn off the heat and, using the rubber spatula, smooth over the top of the omelette so that it evenly covers the inside of the skillet. If using the cheese, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons over the omelette. Let rest for 30 seconds until the omelette has set.
  • Using the rubber spatula, fold the omelette in half, and transfer to a warmed plate. Cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 4 omelettes in all.

BASIC OMELETTE



Basic Omelette image

This is a very simple omelette for one. If you are going to add any fillings, make sure to prepare them ahead of time. Feta cheese and dill is a favourite of mine.

Provided by Sackville

Categories     Breakfast

Time 4m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 large eggs
salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon oil or 1 tablespoon butter, for frying

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk.
  • Add some salt and pepper, if you like, but do not add any water, milk, or any other liquids.
  • Heat the oil or butter in a 9-inch non-stick frying pan and pour in the eggs.
  • In the first 30-seconds of cooking, use a spatula to create 6-10 small cuts through the omelette.
  • This allows the uncooked egg on the top to flow down to the bottom of the pan.
  • When the top is nearly set, sprinkle any fillings over half of the omelette and turn off the heat.
  • Don't worry if some of the egg in the very centre isn't quite set, because the ambient heat will soon cook it.
  • Use your spatula to flip one half of the omelette over the other and serve immediately.

BASIC OMELETTE RECIPE



Basic omelette recipe image

Master the omelette with our simple recipe then add the filling of your choice - grated cheese, ham, fresh herbs, mushrooms and smoked salmon are favourites.

Provided by Miriam Nice

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Supper

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 eggs, beaten
1 tsp sunflower oil
1 tsp butter

Steps:

  • Season the beaten eggs well with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat until the butter has melted and is foaming.
  • Pour the eggs into the pan, tilt the pan ever so slightly from one side to another to allow the eggs to swirl and cover the surface of the pan completely. Let the mixture cook for about 20 seconds then scrape a line through the middle with a spatula.
  • Tilt the pan again to allow it to fill back up with the runny egg. Repeat once or twice more until the egg has just set.
  • At this point you can fill the omelette with whatever you like - some grated cheese, sliced ham, fresh herbs, sautéed mushrooms or smoked salmon all work well. Scatter the filling over the top of the omelette and fold gently in half with the spatula. Slide onto a plate to serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh eggs, vegetables, and herbs will make a big difference in the taste of your omelet.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeaten eggs will make your omelet tough. Just whisk them until they are combined.
  • Cook the omelet over medium heat. This will help prevent it from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you are making a large omelet, cook it in batches.
  • Be patient. It takes a few minutes for an omelet to cook through.
  • Serve immediately. Omelets are best when they are served hot.

Conclusion:

Omelets are a quick, easy, and delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They are also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a little practice, you can make a perfect omelet every time.
