OMELETTE WITH HERBS



Omelette With Herbs image

A great way to use garden herbs. This is adaptable to whatever herbs you have in your garden. When I made it mostly chives and tarragon because that is what I had the most of, but I think this will be good with oregano or other fresh herbs too. The original recipe didn't use any cheese, but I added two slices of deli Swiss cheese (about 1/4 cup). Recipe source: Bon Appetit (Bon Appetit 1991)

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 eggs
4 teaspoons water
salt
pepper
2 teaspoons parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons chives, chopped
2 teaspoons tarragon, chopped
2 teaspoons thyme, chopped
4 teaspoons butter
2 slices swiss cheese, torn in pieces (1/4 cup shredded cheese)
chives, to garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl whisk eggs and water together and then season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir in herbs (parsley - thyme or your favorites).
  • *Note: In the original directions, an omlet pan was used using only half of the egg mixture and half of the butter at a time -- making two complete omlets seperately, rather than the way I indicated in the direction below.
  • In a skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat and add the egg mixture to pan.
  • If using cheese, add cheese on top of eggs.
  • Let eggs set around edges and then lift edges and tilt pan, so uncooked eggs will go under the cooked eggs.
  • Cook until eggs are almost set (1 -2 minutes) and then using a spatula, roll 1/3 of omlet to center.
  • Tilt pan and slide omlet onto plate.
  • Garnish with chives, if desired.

FINES HERBES OMELET



Fines Herbes Omelet image

A proper French omelet is all about (you guessed it) technique. Luckily, Jacques Pépin is the master. Note that Mr. Pépin cracks eggs on his cutting board, not against the rim of the mixing bowl. (This prevents any bacteria on the surface of the shells from getting into the bowl.) In the pan, Mr. Pépin maintains a kind of Tilt-a-Whirl shaking and spinning and scraping of the pan, keeping the eggs constantly in motion.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

10 large eggs, preferably organic
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup loosely packed chopped fresh herbs (1/4 cup parsley, and 1/4 cup combined tarragon, chives and chervil)
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Using a fork, beat the eggs, salt and pepper in a bowl until thoroughly mixed. Stir in the herbs.
  • Heat half the oil and butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over high heat. When the oil and butter are hot, add half the egg mixture. Stir continuously with a fork, shaking the pan, for about 2 minutes to create the smallest-possible curds. When most of the egg is solid, cook it without stirring for 10 seconds to create a thin skin on the underside.
  • Roll the omelet by folding over one side and then the opposite site, and invert it onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make a second omelet. Cut each omelet in half.

FRENCH OMELETTE WITH FINES HERBES RECIPE



French Omelette With Fines Herbes Recipe image

A classic French omelette has a smooth, silky exterior with little to no browning that cradles a tender, moist, soft-scrambled interior. The technique for making one is something every cook should learn-as long as you know these key steps, it's easy. This version is flavored with minced fresh herbs, like parsley, chives, and tarragon.

Time 5m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 large eggs
Large pinch minced delicate fresh herbs (about 1 tablespoon; 2g), such as some combination of parsley, tarragon, chives, and chervil
Kosher salt and freshly ground white or black pepper
1 tablespoon (15g) unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat eggs with a disposable plastic or reusable wooden fork just until last traces of white are mixed in; mix in herbs and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a perfectly unscratched 8-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter, swirling over moderate heat, until fully melted and foamy but not browned. Add eggs and stir rapidly with fork, tines up, while shaking pan to agitate eggs; make sure to move fork all around pan to break up curds and scrape them from bottom of skillet as they form. Stop stirring as soon as eggs are very softly scrambled and creamy (but still loose enough to come together into a single mass), 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Using fork, gently spread egg in an even layer around skillet and scrape down any wispy bits around the edges. The top surface should be loose and creamy, but if it looks too liquid and raw, cook undisturbed for another few seconds. (If it still flows, you can swirl skillet to send loose egg to the edges, where it will set more quickly.)
  • Remove from heat, tilt skillet up by its handle, and, using fork, gently roll omelette down over itself until it is nearly folded in half. Using fork, push omelette to edge of skillet so that lower edge of egg begins to just barely overhang; use fork to fold overhanging edge of egg up, closing the omelette.
  • Hold skillet right over plate and turn omelette out onto it. It should be almond- or cigar-shaped, with the seam on bottom; if it's not, lay a clean kitchen towel over it and use your hands to adjust its shape and position, then remove towel. Serve. (To make another omelette, wipe any eggy bits out of skillet and repeat.)

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large red onion, halved and thinly sliced
Nonstick cooking spray
4 green onions, white and pale green parts, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 ounces baby spinach, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
1/4 cup pine nuts, lightly toasted and chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
9 large eggs
1/4 cup skim milk
1/2 cup 2% Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Add the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and caramelized, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch ovenproof nonstick pan with nonstick spray.
  • Add the green onions and garlic to the caramelized onion and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the spinach and cook until the leaves begin to wilt, 2 minutes. Add the cilantro, parsley, chives, dill and pine nuts, season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat. Transfer to the prepared pan and put in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a blender, blend the eggs and milk on low for about 30 seconds. Pour the eggs over the veggie mixture in the pan, return to the oven and bake until puffed, just set and lightly golden brown on top, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the omelet and let cool for 5 minutes on a baking rack. Transfer to a platter, slice into wedges and top with the yogurt.

FINES HERBS OMELETTE



Fines Herbs Omelette image

Provided by Ina Garten

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 tablespoon medium chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/2 tablespoon medium chopped fresh chervil
3/4 tablespoon thin sliced fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon thin sliced fresh tarragon
2 extra-large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
Pinch kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 ounces plain goat cheese
2 ounces roasted red peppers, julienned

Steps:

  • To make the Fines Herbs, combine the parsley, chervil, chives and tarragon in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Break the eggs into a small bowl, and then add the milk, 2 tablespoons Fines Herbs, salt and pepper and whisk with a fork.
  • Preheat an 8-inch nonstick saute pan over medium hot heat and swirl the olive oil into the pan. Pour in the egg mixture and swirl it in the pan. For a few seconds, gently stir the egg mixture with a heat resistant rubber spatula (as if you were going to make scrambled eggs) and then swirl the eggs in the pan to make a nice round appearance. Reduce the heat to avoid any color or scorching. Continue cooking for about 1 minute. The eggs will be set on the bottom, but slightly liquid on top.
  • Flip the omelet, and remove it from the heat. Crumble the goat cheese over the center of the omelet and top it off with the roasted peppers. Tri-fold the omelet and plate immediately.

FRESH HERBS OMELET



Fresh Herbs Omelet image

This is called a "fines herbes" omelet in France, and usually contains finely minced parsley and chives, sometimes tarragon or chervil as well. The herbs should be sweet ones rather than bitter or sharp; basil, mint, and dill would also work. This is a classic French rolled omelet, served hot, right out of the pan, an utterly satisfying quick meal. The classic French omelet is made with butter, but in the Mediterranean a healthier version is made with olive oil. Use a nonstick pan for this.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 10m

Yield 2 rolled omelets, serving 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 large or extra-large eggs
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon milk
3 tablespoons minced chopped herbs, such as parsley, dill, chives, tarragon, chervil, basil, mint (use no more than 3)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Break 2 eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste (about 1/8 teaspoon salt), and 2 teaspoons milk. Whisk half the herbs into the eggs and mix well.
  • Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. When the oil feels hot when you hold your hand above it, pour in the eggs, scraping every last bit into the pan. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, jerk the pan quickly away from you then back towards you so that the omelet folds over on itself. Tilt the pan and roll out onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining eggs and herbs, and serve.

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 tsp rapeseed oil
3 tomatoes , halved
4 large eggs
1 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tbsp chopped basil

Pour the egg mixture into the pan and stir gently with a wooden spoon so the egg that sets on the base of the pan moves to enable uncooked egg to flow into the space. Stop stirring when it's nearly cooked to allow it to set into an omelette. Cut into four and serve with the tomatoes.

HERB-FILLED OMELET



Herb-Filled Omelet image

Dress up a regular omelet with fresh herbs, and then serve seam-side up to show off the filling.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Yield Makes one omelet

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 tablespoon Clarified Butter
3 large eggs
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped mixed herbs, such as chervil, tarragon, parsley, and chives, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat butter in an 8-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
  • While butter is heating, whisk together eggs, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Pour into skillet and reduce heat to medium. Simultaneously stir eggs with a heatproof flexible spatula and shake the skillet vigorously back and forth over heat for about 1 minute. You want to keep the eggs moving, incorporating some of the runny parts with the more-cooked parts until there are some curds swimming in the eggs. Continue cooking, using a spatula to pull cooked eggs from the edge and allow uncooked parts to run underneath, until eggs are just set, with no more runny parts (about 15 to 30 seconds).
  • Sprinkle herbs evenly over eggs, then run the spatula around all sides of omelet to loosen it from the pan. Use spatula to lift edge of omelet and gently fold over one third. Then, holding pan over plate, simultaneously slide and roll omelet onto plate. (Alternatively, flip over one half to form a half-moon shape.) Serve immediately, sprinkled with herbs for garnish.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will give your omelette the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use only 1/3 of the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the eggs will not cook evenly. Cook the eggs in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the eggs over medium heat. Medium heat will help the eggs cook evenly without burning them.
  • Don't overcook the eggs. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery. Cook the eggs until they are just set, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for omelettes. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the omelette immediately. Omelettes are best served immediately after they are cooked. If you need to keep the omelette warm, place it in a preheated oven set to 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Omelettes are a versatile and delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They can be made with a variety of ingredients, so you can easily customize them to your liking. With a little practice, you can make perfect omelettes every time.
