Soufflé Omelet Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whip egg whites, add cream of tartar and salt and continue whipping to soft peaks. Whisk yolks and pepper to taste in a separate bowl. Fold yolks into whites until just incorporated.
• Melt butter in a small nonstick skillet over low heat. Pour in eggs and immediately place the skillet in the oven. Bake until eggs are puffed and browned on top but not dry, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• Loosen the edges of the omelet with a spatula and slide it onto a plate. Spoon goat cheese down the middle and gently fold in half. Fold again and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place a 7-or-8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Set the oven rack to the center position and heat the broiler to high.
• Place the yolks into a medium bowl and the whites into a large metal or glass bowl. Add the salt to the whites and, using a metal whisk or hand mixer, whip up until foamy and they hold medium peaks. Set aside. Lightly whisk the egg yolks until slightly foamy. Using a metal spoon or large whisk, gently fold the yolks into the whites just until combined.
• Melt the butter in the pan and gently pour in the eggs. Allow the omelette to cook for 1 minute. Gently sprinkle with all the cheese and transfer to the oven for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
• Gently fold the omelette in half and transfer to a plate. Scatter with the herbs, season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the sauce, in a medium saucepan combine the sugar, orange juice and vanilla bean seeds or vanilla extract and bring to a boil. Reduce by a third. Add the apricots, turn the heat down to medium and simmer 5 to 10 minutes, until the apricots are soft. Remove from the heat and divide among 4 plates or pour the sauce onto a platter and arrange the apricots on the edge.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Have the platter for your omelet close at hand.
• Whisk the egg whites in a clean dry bowl or in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When they begin to foam, add the cream of tartar and continue to whisk at medium speed until they form medium peaks. Continue whisking on medium speed while you slowly add the sugar, until the egg whites form stiff, satiny but not dry peaks.
• In another large bowl, beat the egg yolks and add the Cointreau, salt and nutmeg. Stir 1/4 of the egg whites into this mixture, then gently fold in the rest.
• Heat a 10-inch skillet that can go into the oven over medium-high heat. Add the butter to the hot pan, and when the foam subsides and the butter is just beginning to color, gently scrape in the egg mixture, using a rubber spatula. Do not stir. Immediately transfer to the oven for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, until puffed. Remove from the heat, sprinkle half the toasted almonds over the omelet and slide or turn out onto the platter, folding the puffed omelet in half as you do. Sprinkle with the remaining toasted almonds and dust with powdered sugar if you wish. Spoon onto the plates with the apricot sauce and serve. Note: You can also serve the apricot sauce separately and spoon it over the soufflé.

Steps:

• Mix most of the cheese with the ham or gammon, egg yolks, mustard, herbs and some seasoning. Whisk egg whites until stiff. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whites into the yolk mixture until evenly mixed.
• Heat a splash of olive oil in a small non-stick frying pan. Pour mixture into the pan and cook for 4 mins until the underside is set and browned. Sprinkle over the remaining cheese and grill for 2 mins until cheese is bubbling and golden.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Crack the eggs, then separate the yolks from the whites into 2 bowls. Tip the Parmesan and most of the basil in with the yolks and season. Whisk the whites vigorously for about a min until light and fluffy, then, using the same whisk, beat the yolks with the Parmesan and basil. Finally, whisk the yolk mix into the whites.
• Heat the oil in a small frying pan and tip in the egg mix. Leave to cook for a min, then drop over the goat's cheese and tomatoes. Place the pan under the grill for 5 mins until puffed up, golden, and set with only the slightest wobble. Scatter over the remaining basil leaves, then serve the soufflé omelette straight from the pan with salad.

Steps:

• Beat egg whites until frothy.
• Add water and salt; continue beating about a minute or until stiff peaks form.
• Beat yolks at high speed of electric mixer until thick and lemon colored (about 5 minutes).
• Fold yolks into whites.
• Heat butter in a 10 inch skillet with an oven proof handle.
• Pour in egg mixture, mounding it a little higher on the sides.
• Cook over low heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until eggs are puffed and set and the bottom is golden brown.
• Place skillet in a 325 degree (163 celcius) oven; bake for 10 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• Make a shallow cut off center of the omelet.
• Place your fillers on the larger half of the omelet.
• Fold the smaller half over the fillers.
• Slip omelet onto a warmed plate.
