Chorizo And Spinach Omelet Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 10 grams of butter in a 18cm (base measurement) heavy based non stick frying pan over moderate heat and add chorizo and onions and cook and stir for 3 minutes or until chorizo is crisp and then add mushrooms and cook and stir for 2 minutes or until tender and then add the spinach and cook for 30 seconds or until wilted and transfer to a heatproof bowl.
• Whope pan clean.
• Whisk eggs, chives and 1/4 cup water in a large jug and season with salt pepper.
• FOR EACH OMELET, melt 10 grams of the butter in clean pan over moderately high heat and add a quarter of the egg mixture and tilt to cover base and cook for 2 minutes until set underneath and then slide onto a serving plate.
• Top half the omelet with a quarter of the chorizo mixture and fold omelet over to enclose.

Steps:

• Pile spinach leaves in stacks 1 on top of the other. Thinly slice stacks of leaves to make spinach confetti. Pile shredded spinach into the bottom of a medium sized mixing bowl. Halve grape or cherry tomatoes with a paring knife and add them to the mixing bowl. Add the zest of 2 lemons to the bowl and save the lemons in the refrigerator to juice for another recipe. Add hot cooked and drained orzo pasta to the mixing bowl. The heat of the pasta will wilt the spinach and warm the tomatoes at the bottom of the bowl and get the juices flowing from veggies. The heat of the pasta will also release the flavor and oils in the lemon zest. Drizzle 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil over the pasta and toss to combine the veggies and orzo. Add basil and salt and pepper and toss to combine. Taste your orzo to adjust seasonings and serve.

Steps:

• Tip the spinach into a large colander and bring a kettleful of water to the boil. Slowly pour the water over the spinach until wilted, then cool under cold water. Squeeze all the liquid out of the spinach and set aside.
• Heat grill to high. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and gently cook the onion and potato for about 10 mins until the potato is soft. While the onion is cooking, beat the eggs together in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Stir the spinach into the potatoes, then pour in the eggs and cook, stirring occasionally, until nearly set, then flash the omelette under the grill to set the top. Ease the omelette on to a plate, then flip over back into the pan. Finish cooking the omelette on the underside and turn out onto a board. Serve cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs in a bowl, then stir in most of the chives and season. Heat the oil in a frying pan, then fry the chorizo and chilli for 3 mins or until crisp. Tip into a bowl and mix with the cheese.
• Put the pan back on the heat, pour in the eggs and cook for 1 min or until set to your liking, swirling the eggs with a fork a few times as they start to set. Spoon the cheese mix over one half of the omelette, top with the remaining chives, then flip the other side over the filling. Leave for 30 secs more until the cheese starts to melt at the edges. Serve straightaway.

Steps:

• Cook the potato in boiling water for 8-10 mins or until tender. Drain and allow to steam-dry. Heat oil in an omelette pan, add chorizo and cook for 2 mins. Add the potato and cook for a further 5 mins until the potato starts to crisp. Spoon pan contents out, wipe pan and cook a 2 or 3-egg omelette in the same pan. When almost cooked, scatter with the chorizo and potato, parsley and cheese. Fold the omelette in the pan and cook for 1 min more to melt the cheese.
