With so many eggs in the house now, we are having lots of scrambled eggs and lots of omeletes. We seem to have the same thing each week so I was just wondering how do you lot cook your omelettes and what do you have in them?

 

We tend to have a six egg omelette for two people with a filing of : red onion / yellow pepper / rosemary / pancetta or chorizo, cooked in the oven.

 

Give me some inspiration!!

I do a Greek one - squares of Feta,Olive,oregano,Red onion....yum!

 

Frittata is also good, just add some cooked salad potatoes,peas,sweetcorn, whatever you have handy really

When we make omelette we use Delia's recipe for Souffled omelette:

We just use whatever cheese(s) we have in the fridge at the time.

 

I also make her Foaming Hollandaise, which I then portion and freeze. I love this with my poached eggs, or with fish.

 

She also has some gorgeous sweet omelettes/souffles including this one

And then there's home made vanilla custard, lemon curd, ice cream.....

We make omelettes with chopped mixed herbs in with with the eggs when beaten then cooked as normal. Soft herbs like chives, parsley tarragon and coriander all work well.

 

Also with piles of cheese in the middle before folding so it melts and goes really squidgy

I make Frittata, with potato, onion, tomato and cheese......and any leftover veggies.

 

I also make a Jam Souffle Omelette sometimes

Thanks guys - some good ideas there

 

I'm loving the thought of a jam souffle omelette - yum!

I fry mushrooms, put them on the uncooked top side with some blue cheese and either fold over or flash under the grill if it needs a bit more cooking.
