It doesn't get more basic than this, you know? And yet, one of the first things that Billy Goats & Co want to stop us eating is eggs! Very bad for climate change, all those farting hens, of course... :-D

The recipe below is for the basic omelette, but Natasha's Kitchen has also given us a selection of fillings and toppings. My personal favorite is feta cheese and parsley, closely followed by ham and emmental cheese - both of which I added to Natash's list. And you definitely need some real fresh bakery bread to mop up the runny bits. Yumm.


INGREDIENTS
Omelette Ingredients:
  • 2 large eggs
  • Pinch fine sea salt
  • 1/2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella, low moisture, part-skim
Optional Fillings:
  • Fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
  • Sautéed mushrooms
  • Crispy Air Fryer Bacon, chopped
  • Sautéed diced bell pepper and onions
  • Ham, diced
  • Feta cheese
  • Emmental cheese
Optional Toppings:
  • Chives or parsley, chopped, to garnish
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Baby tomatoes, halved
  • Avocado, diced
  • Dill 

INSTRUCTIONS
  • In a small mixing bowl, beat together eggs and a pinch of salt until foamy.
  • Place a small nonstick skillet over medium heat and swirl in 1/2 Tbsp butter. Once butter is melted and bubbling, add frothy eggs to the skillet and immediately reduce the heat to low.
  • Use a spatula to pull the cooked eggs into the center, letting the liquid egg fill the space behind it. Continue going around the pan, pulling the eggs towards the center until the eggs are nearly set.
  • Once the omelette is sliding around the pan easily and you can get a spatula underneath, flip the omelette over and turn off the heat.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the egg and add your favorite toppings. Fold the omelette in half and slide it onto your plate then garnish as desired.

ABOUT THE CODES ON THIS BLOG

This is a random collection of pictures that relate to geometry in some way or other, which I combine with quotes from architects, artists, writers and scientists. I initially started this as a test blog for the template modifications that I like to do. But then the whole thing took on a life of its own since looking at these beautiful, structured, orderly pictures gives me a lot of peace; which I hope that you, the viewer, will experience as well.
