OPEN-FACED
OMELETTE WITH FRESH TOMATO, EMMENTHAL AND
ROCKET
This
simplified version of a classic folded omelette
is more like an Italian frittata. Just one
of many alternative combinations would be
to substitute roasted peppers and fontina
for the tomato and Emmenthal.
PER
PERSON
3 eggs
A pinch of salt
10g butter
2 spring onions, chopped
1 ripe tomato, sliced
2 slices of Emmenthal
1 handful rocket (arugula), tossed in a
little olive oil and sea salt
Black pepper

Place
eggs and salt in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of
water and beat lightly with a fork until just
combined.
Melt
butter in a small frying pan over medium heat
and pour in egg mixture. As the eggs begin to
cook, place chopped spring onions on top, followed
by sliced tomato and Emmenthal. Continue to cook
for 2-3 minutes.
Place
the pan under a preheated grill to finish cooking
the eggs and melt the Emmenthal. Slide the finished
omelette onto a warm serving plate and place the
rocket in the centre of the omelette. Finish with
a grinding of black pepper.
NOTE:
Use leftover cooked potatoes and/or beans to turn
this into a Spanish tortilla. Serve with Tabasco.
