I love to cook, but over the years, I don’t do it as much as in years past. My kids are grown and it’s just my hubby and I. Learning to cook for two has been hard for me and when I find something I love, I tend to make it about once a week. This is one of those things. It’s an Omelette-Frittata thing that is pretty yummy and super easy with the omelette tips below!
Just watch the video. No need for a list of ingredients. You can add anything you like including other veggies and cheese. For this one, I simply used spinach and Canadian bacon. I also spray PAM on my skillet before starting.
I learned the tip about tilting the skillet while watching a cook in the Bahamas at the omelette station during our daily buffet breakfasts. When I got home, I tried it and was very pleased. The tip works even if you are making a traditional “quick” omelette, and the part about cooking your ingredients in the skillet before adding the eggs is important, too.
I also don’t cook this TOO quick…and I stand there, tending to it with my silicon spatula the entire time. You can do this over a higher heat, but be ready to move quickly, as it will cook fast since you are tilting and getting all the egg exposed to the skillet. If you start with a high heat, then lower it and move quick, it won’t get too golden brown…so adjust that to your preference. Cooking it longer, as here, makes it almost like a quiche without the crust! No need to bake in the oven, either. Serve up with fruit and it’s a great brunch meal on Sunday!
These tips may be no news to some of you, but I had never done them when cooking eggs before. Learning something new brings me JOY…what can I say?! As a side note…notice the skillet is ROUND, after all…just pointing that out…but I digress.
Hope you enjoy! Let me know if you try this and how it turned out. Do you have other fave ingredients you like to add to your omelette or frittata? I’m always up for new ideas!
