Cheese Omelet

Just recently, I managed to prepare a cheese omelet at my home, which to my surprise did not ooze the cheese out & stick it to the pan. It was just perfect to be transferred from the pan to the plate & ready to eat.

Hence, thought of sharing the recipe & the cooking procedure with you cheese omelet guys. So here goes:

Ingredients:

1. 2 eggs

2. Salt to taste

3. Pepper to taste

4. 1 Green Chilly

5. ¼ little finely chopped onion

6. Chopped coriander

7. 1 tbl spoon oil

Procedure:

1. Beat the 2 eggs in a bowl.

2. Add salt & pepper to the bowl & beat well.

3. Chop the green chilly & add it to the eggs.

4. Add the chopped onion & coriander. Finally beat the mixture well.

5. Break the cheddar cheese into small pieces. Crush each piece of the cheese between your fingers & add them to the beaten eggs.

6. Heat a flat pan (a Tava preferably) on medium heat. Add 1 tbl spoon of oil to the pan & then lower the heat to minimum (This is important, a cheese omelet cooks well only on minimum heat).

7. Pour the beaten eggs on the pan. Now cover the pan with a lid for a minute (If left covered for more than a minute, the cheese will completely melt & ooze out & then stick to the pan after you flip it. Bad luck thenJ).

8. Remove the lid & then flip the omelet. Let it turn brown on the other side. Make sure that the cheese does not leak out. If it does it means, you haven’t kept the heat to a minimum.

9. Once done, serve the omelet with toast, butter & ketchup. A perfectly unhealthy but the most tasteful breakfast is ready. Include orange juice with it if you can.

TIP: If done properly, you will never think of ever going again to Vahuman Café (in Pune ) for a cheese omelet.
