Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large eggs, beaten
2 Tbsp water
salt and pepper
1/2 c potato, cooked and cubed
1/2 c sour cream
2 Tbsp green onions, sliced

Steps:

  • 1. Beat eggs with water; season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Spray an 8-inch omelet pan or nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat.
  • 2. Add potatoes to skillet. Heat until heated through. (Or microwave until heated through). Set aside.
  • 3. Pour eggs into skillet. (Eggs should set immediately at edges). With an inverted pancake turner, carefully push cooked portions at edges toward center so uncooked portions can reach hot pan surface, tilting pan and moving cooked portions as necessary.

  • 5. Top omelet with a dollop of sour cream and green onions if desired.

Tips:

  • Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the omelet from sticking and make it easier to flip.
  • Heat the skillet over medium heat: You don't want the skillet to be too hot, or the omelet will cook too quickly and be dry. If the skillet starts to smoke, reduce the heat.
  • Use a spatula to stir the eggs: Do not use a whisk, as this will incorporate too much air into the eggs and make the omelet tough.
  • Cook the omelet for 3-4 minutes per side: The omelet should be cooked through but still slightly runny in the center.
  • Add your favorite fillings: You can add almost anything to an omelet, such as cheese, vegetables, meat, or seafood. Be creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Serve the omelet immediately: Omelets are best served hot out of the skillet.

The Russian omelet is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, meat, or seafood. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, the Russian omelet is a perfect recipe for beginner cooks.
