Omelette





This was my "Brunch" for the day. A standard Omelette, some bacon and a grilled tomato half with cheese.

I am getting better at mastering the Omelette. For someone who can cook all sorts of fancy things and have them turn out quite good on the first attempt, I still have trouble with the simple things such as frying an egg, or an omelette for that matter.

And I have learnt that using water in the omelettes, rather than milk or cream, turns out alot lighter.. And healthier I guess!! :) And it tastes no different.

For this one that took up half the size of the dinner plate.. was just 3 eggs and about less than 1/4 cup water. Whisk with a fork, add in some pepper to taste. Tablespoon of butter into a frying pan on medium until it's melted then pour in the egg mixture, covering the whole pan. Let it cook for about 5 minutes or thereabouts - turn the heat down if it starts to burn. Carefully lift one part of the side with an eggflip, if it comes away easily and looks lightly browned, get the flip under some more and flip half onto itself. It'll cook through in about 2 minutes. Serve, enjoy!
