• Meanwhile, add the water, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper to the eggs and lightly beat to combine.
• Pour egg mixture into skillet, over the onion and zucchini mixture, give it all a quick stir and then allow it to cook gently, untouched, for about 3 minutes.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently lift egg around the edges, pushing slightly in toward the center, to allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath.

• Pour the salsa in a straight line from one end of the omelet to the other, just off center.
• Gently pick up the opposite side of the omelet with your spatula and quickly fold it over onto the salsa.

FLAT ZUCCHINI OMELET

Steps:

• Trim ends of zucchini, then coarsely grate on large holes of a box grater. Toss zucchini with 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and let stand 30 minutes.
• Transfer zucchini to a colander, then firmly squeeze handfuls to remove excess liquid.
• Heat olive oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté zucchini, stirring until golden, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in marjoram, then let mixture cool to warm, about 15 minutes.
• Lightly beat eggs with zucchini, pepper, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl, using a fork.
• Heat butter in a 7- to 8-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides and butter has a nutty fragrance. Add egg mixture, distributing zucchini evenly with a heatproof rubber spatula, and cook, lifting up egg around edges occasionally to let any uncooked egg flow underneath, until egg mixture is set around edge, about 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to moderately low and cook omelet until softly set but top is still moist, about 3 minutes.
• Shake skillet to loosen omelet from pan, then slide omelet onto a large plate.
• Wearing oven mitts, invert skillet over omelet, then holding skillet and plate together invert omelet, browned side up, into skillet. Cook omelet until underside is set, about 1 minute, then slide omelet onto a serving plate.
