Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup grated Gruyere cheese
1/4 cup soda water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Thinly sliced fresh chives, for topping
Thinly sliced fresh flat-leaf parsley, for topping

Steps:

  • Separate the egg yolks and whites into 2 separate medium bowls. Add 1 tablespoon of water to the egg whites and, using a hand mixer, beat on medium-high speed until medium peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Season the yolks with salt and pepper and beat until smooth, thickened and slightly pale in color. Fold one-third of the egg whites into the egg yolks and thoroughly mix until there are no streaks. Add half of the Gruyere and the soda water. Pour in the remaining egg whites and gently fold to combine.
  • Melt the butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until it foams, then pour in the egg mixture, smoothing the top. Cover the skillet and cook until the omelet is golden brown on the bottom and you can lift the edges to peak underneath, about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cheese and the herbs on top, cover the skillet and cook 2 more minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Fold over and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn kernels for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn. Just be sure to drain the canned corn well before using.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for the best results. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a nonstick skillet, but the omelet may not be as crispy.
  • Heat the skillet over medium-high heat before adding the oil. This will help to prevent the omelet from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you're making a large omelet, you may need to cook it in batches.
  • Cook the omelet until it is golden brown on the bottom and puffed up. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Serve the omelet immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include salsa, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole.

Conclusion:

The puffy corn omelet is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to use up leftover corn, and it's also a good source of protein and vegetables. With its crispy exterior and fluffy interior, the puffy corn omelet is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
