Omelette
It seems almost silly to add this, but if no one reminds me I will forget it is possible to make omelettes.
ingredients (per omelette)
2 eggs
fillings
cheese
sautéd mushrooms and shallots (do this in a separate pan or your omelette is guaranteed to fail)

- whisk eggs lightly
- put your "little gem" omelette pan or non-stick alternative on a medium-high heat and add a smidge of butter
- when the butter has stopped foaming and before the little black bits start to appear, pour in your eggs
- keep pulling the cooked egg mixture away from the sides until the omelette is looking billowy but is not yet completely set on the top
- turn down the heat, add your choice of filling, fold in half and leave until the eggs are almost set in the middle and the cheese (if applicable) has melted.
Serve with a nice green salad or tomato salad.
Salad tricolore
ingredients
1 ball of mozzarella cheese
2 tomatoes
1 ripe avocado
1 ball of mozzarella cheese
2 tomatoes
1 ripe avocado
- chop or tear the mozzarella
- finely slice the tomatoes (peel and deseed if you can be bothered)
- slice avocado
- arrange artfully on 2 plates, add salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar
Serves 2, just barely. Add bread to make it more filling.
