OMELET à LA CIBOULETTE



Omelet à La Ciboulette image

This is a chive omelette with Gruyère and Canadian bacon. It's so good and I've made it several times. My kids even like it. This only makes one serving, but it's quick and easy to make more than one. I decided to post it for Zaar World Tour 05.

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 slice Canadian bacon, cut into thin strips
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon milk
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons grated gruyere
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  • Saute the bacon until lightly browned; set aside.
  • Whisk the eggs with chives, milk and a few pinches of salt & pepper to taste. Note: You can substitute water for the milk.
  • Melt the butter in an 8" skillet over medium high heat. When the butter has stopped foaming swirl it to coat the bootom of the pan and add the egg mixture. Lightly scramble the eggs using small circular motions. You may use the back of a fork, keeping it flat on the bottom of the pan. As the egg mixture firms, hold some back from the side of the pan and tilt the pan to spread the eggs over the bottom.
  • Scatter the Gruyère over the omelett being sure to leave a margin around the edges and add the bacon. Lift 1/3 of the omelett and fold it over the center using a spatuala. Tilt the pan toward the plat2 so that 1/3 of the omelette hangs over the edge.
  • Invert the pan, using the spatula for support so that it flips neatly over onto itself out of the pan onto the plate.
  • Garnish with more chives and serve immeadiately.

Time 8m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/8 teaspoon salt
Pinch ground white pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
*3 tablespoons grated cheese, such as cheddar or Swiss (optional)
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Place the eggs, heavy cream, salt and pepper in the blender and mix until very frothy, about 1 minute. Heat a saute pan over medium heat and, when hot, add the butter to the pan, swirling to coat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Using the rubber spatula, stir continuously and scrape down sides so as to evenly cook the mixture. Once the mixture resembles wet scrambled eggs, after about 30 seconds, use the rubber spatula to smooth the eggs so that they are an even depth throughout. Cook until almost set, about 10 seconds longer, and use the rubber spatula to fold the omelet in 1/2. Carefully slide the omelet out of the pan onto the plate.
  • Serve immediately.

OMELET



Omelet image

This recipe is for a basic French omelet with three eggs: enough for a hearty breakfast or brunch, or a light supper for one. The key to mastering this recipe is controlling the heat so the eggs do not brown, and whisking the eggs in the skillet so they set on the exterior but remain fluffy inside. A good nonstick or well-seasoned carbon-steel skillet is central to cooking the ideal omelet, which should be tender and slightly runny. Once you've got the technique down, you can play around with your seasonings, adding minced herbs, grated cheese, diced ham or sautéed vegetables. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 large eggs
Large pinch fine sea salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 to 2 teaspoons minced fresh herbs, such as parsley, tarragon, chives or a combination (optional)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Crack eggs into a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon water, and salt and pepper. Whisk with a fork until egg whites are incorporated into yolks. Mix in herbs, if using.
  • Place a 8- to 9-inch skillet (preferably nonstick or seasoned carbon steel) over high heat. Melt butter until bubbling subsides.
  • Pour in egg mixture and reduce heat to medium. With the back of a fork or a heatproof rubber spatula, whisk eggs around skillet until the bottom begins to set. This takes only a few seconds. Add any fillings, if using.
  • Tilt skillet and either bang or flip egg over itself. Use fork or spatula if necessary to complete folding in half or thirds. Angle the skillet and a serving plate together, and flip omelet onto plate.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chives: Fresh chives have a more intense flavor than dried chives. If you don't have fresh chives, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried chives.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: Omelets should be cooked until they are just set. Overcooked eggs are tough and rubbery.
  • Add your favorite fillings: You can add any number of fillings to your omelet, such as cheese, vegetables, meat, or seafood. Be creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Serve immediately: Omelets are best served immediately after they are cooked. They will start to deflate as they cool.

Conclusion:

Omelets are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of practice, you can make a delicious omelet that the whole family will enjoy.
