Omelette With Herbs image

A great way to use garden herbs. This is adaptable to whatever herbs you have in your garden. When I made it mostly chives and tarragon because that is what I had the most of, but I think this will be good with oregano or other fresh herbs too. The original recipe didn't use any cheese, but I added two slices of deli Swiss cheese (about 1/4 cup). Recipe source: Bon Appetit (Bon Appetit 1991)

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 eggs
4 teaspoons water
salt
pepper
2 teaspoons parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons chives, chopped
2 teaspoons tarragon, chopped
2 teaspoons thyme, chopped
4 teaspoons butter
2 slices swiss cheese, torn in pieces (1/4 cup shredded cheese)
chives, to garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl whisk eggs and water together and then season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir in herbs (parsley - thyme or your favorites).
  • *Note: In the original directions, an omlet pan was used using only half of the egg mixture and half of the butter at a time -- making two complete omlets seperately, rather than the way I indicated in the direction below.
  • In a skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat and add the egg mixture to pan.
  • If using cheese, add cheese on top of eggs.
  • Let eggs set around edges and then lift edges and tilt pan, so uncooked eggs will go under the cooked eggs.
  • Cook until eggs are almost set (1 -2 minutes) and then using a spatula, roll 1/3 of omlet to center.
  • Tilt pan and slide omlet onto plate.
  • Garnish with chives, if desired.

This omelette was a disaster! It was overcooked and the cheese was rubbery. I won't be making this recipe again.

This omelette was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs next time.
