Omelette

Omelettes allow you to choose whatever combinations of ingredients you like and they’re so quick to make, you’ll have a meal in minutes. But how do you make the perfect omelette?
  • Gently beat two eggs together with salt, pepper and a teaspoon of cold water.
  • Warm a medium frying pan over a high heat with a dash of oil
  • Pour the egg mixture into the centre of the pan and cook over a high heat for 1-2 minutes.
  • As the egg begins to set, use a spatula to push the set egg towards the omelette centre.
  • Continue until the entire egg mixture is set.
  • Cook the set omelette for another minute, then loosen the edges with a spatula and fold the omelette in half.
  • Slide onto a plate and tuck in a salad mixture with cheese!  
Alternatively;
  • Beat 2 eggs with salt and pepper
  • Add ¼ tomato chopped, ¼ onion chopped, ¼ green pepper chopped, 2” carrot chopped all into tiny pieces, you can also add any other ingredient like tuna fish and cheese but remember to balance the salt taste
  • Beat the mixture to even out
  • In a warm frying pan with a dash of vegetable oil over high heat, all the mixture
  • Let it cook till it browns below (you will know by lifting the egg side and looking underneath)
  • Push you spatula beneath the egg and turn to get the other side cooked to brown
  • Roll the egg and carry it to your plate
you can have this with toast and run it down with a glass of fresh African Passion fruit juice
