Breakfast For Champions, Part 4 - French Omelette with Tomatoes, Ham and Cheddar
Ah, french food. Just the very thought of it makes me start salivating like crazy. French toast, quiche Lorraine, creme brulee, profiterole, macarons (oh-la-la), ratatouille, foie gras, more and more and more. And how about those cheeses? Let's not go in there, because french cheeses are the best! French people know how to live, hands down.
Now, the french omelette is a classical breakfast. Just like the scrambled eggs, you can add almost anything to it, from avocado to bacon to tomatoes. One thing I always like in mine is cheese, cheddar to be precise. Cheese makes everything better. That's the universal truth that everyone knows. And omelettes are one of the best breakfasts ever because they combine eggs, a highly nutritious food, and other healthy ingredients. Or decadent, like bacon if you wish.
Ingredients (per 1 person):
- 2 medium eggs
- 2 tsp flour
- 1 tsp milk
- salt
- butter
- filling of your choosing, for me: 1/2 tomato (sliced to disks), 1 slice of ham (diced) and grated cheese (to your taste)
How-To:
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs slightly.
- Add the flour and the milk and whisk away all limps.
- Stir in the salt.
- On the hob heat a non-stick pan and melt the butter in.
- When the butter is melted, pour the eggs in.
- Wait until the center is cooked but the edges are still watery and add in the filling.
- Using spatula close the omelette, folding it in half and cook for another minute.
- Enjoy it while it's hot!
