I find that if I’ve had a “proper” breakfast of some kind that things just work better over all.
But ordinarily I wouldn’t go to the trouble of making myself an omelette first thing in the morning. I tend to leave omelettes for when I’m staying in hotels and someone else is doing all the hard work 🙂
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve changed that.
Sure, I’m not going to cook an omelette every single day, but there’s no reason why I can’t make one from time to time. It only takes a few minutes .. assuming you have the right ingredients to hand
Basic Omelette
Omelettes are a wonderful option for breakfast, lunch or even dinner!
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp Mixed herbs
- Filling depends on what you like
Instructions
-
Beat the eggs with the herbs
-
Oil (or spray) a small to medium sized frying pan
-
Heat the pan
-
Pour the egg mixture in and let it cook. Tilt the pan to let the uncooked mixture spread to cover the pan as much as possible. Use a spatula to move it gently so it doesn't stick.
-
When the egg is cooked enough for your taste serve!
A filling for an omelette can be as simple as a couple of mushrooms and a bit of onion or it could involve a whole load of other ingredients. It’s really up to you.
Personally I like using a bit of fresh red or green pepper and some onion and tomatoe with a bit of mushroom.
Serving the end result with a bit of brown toast and a nice big mug of coffee gives my morning a nice “kick”. It also means I’m not quite as hungry at lunchtime!
