Three Egg Omelet Recipes

Steps:

• Lay the zucchini, carrot and radish out on a rimmed baking sheet, cover with the onions, sprinkle with the zest and juice and black pepper, and drizzle with olive oil. Let marinate at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Crack the eggs into a medium glass bowl, and beat them until they turn pale yellow. Heat a heavy-bottomed nonstick saute pan over medium-low heat; add the butter, and let it melt. Sprinkle the eggs with some salt and white pepper, then grab your whisk and whisk like crazy. When the butter in the pan is hot enough to make a drop of water hiss, pour in the eggs. Let the eggs cook for up to a minute-don't stir!-or until the bottom starts to set.
• With a heat-resistant rubber spatula, gently push 1 edge of the eggs into the center of the pan while tilting the pan to allow the still-liquid eggs to flow in underneath. Repeat with the other edges until there's no liquid left. Your eggs should now resemble a bright yellow pancake, which should easily slide around on the nonstick surface. If it sticks at all, loosen it with your spatula.
• Gently flip the egg pancake over, using your spatula to ease it over if necessary. Cook for another few seconds, or until there is no uncooked egg left. With your spatula, lift 1 edge of the egg and fold it across and over, so the edges line up; don't overcook or allow the egg to turn brown. If necessary, you can flip the entire omelet over to cook the top for 30 seconds or so. Just don't let it get brown.
• Gently transfer the finished omelet to a plate. Serve with the marinated vegetables, and top with pickled vegetables.

Steps:

• Let the rooms come to room temperature. This is important to achieve the consistency of an egg crepe. Add a splash of milk or cream.
• When they have warmed, whisk briskly with a grinder handle motion (a cook whips air into the eggs to give them fluffiness- no magic powder or secret spell).
• Place butter into a large, nonstick skillet, over med-high heat. Heat until butter melts, using your egg turner to spread the butter over the pan.
• Add the eggs, and season with sea salt and black pepper. If using herbs, add them now.
• As the eggs start to cook, they will start to cling to the pan. As they do this, pick up the pan and swirl them around to help them evenly set. Use your egg turner to sort of bump down the edges of the omelet on the pan sides, where the eggs stick to the pan.
• Swirl the eggs until they are almost set/dry, with no runny areas of egg white, then sprinkle with cheeses. If adding other ingredients, add them now.
• Fold over one third of omelet onto center, top with other side. Allow ingredients to get hot inside, then turn out onto a warm plate, then flip over seam side down.
• If you prefer, just fold the omelet in half and turn out onto plate, in a half moon shape.
• Your omelet, if cooked right, should not have runny egg white inside, and the exterior should be a light golden brown, not just ordinary egg-yellow.
• Sprinkle with paprika or a douse of Tabasco sauce, if you like. If you use ketchup, don't tell me about it. *laughs*.

Steps:

• Spray or lightly grease a large skillet and heat over medium heat.
• Crack 3 eggs into a glass measuring cup and beat with a fork or whisk until scrambled. Pour eggs into heated skillet, swirling the pan to coat the bottom. Cover and let cook until eggs are firm, about 2 minutes.
• Top with 1/4 each of the chopped ham, turkey, green onions, tomato, parsley, green bell pepper, and Cheddar cheese. Fold egg in half over fillings, and serve warm. Repeat with remaining ingredients for 4 omelets.

Steps:

• Using an 8-inch, non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add beaten eggs. Add the eggs begin to coagulate, add the 3 cheeses evenly over the eggs. As cheese begins to melt, and before the eggs get brown, flip or turn egg mixture over. Continue to cook until the cheese melts. Turn omelette 1 more time. The finished omelette will be a nice yellow color with the cheese melted. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Line a 15-by-18-inch sheet pan with parchment paper leaving a 2-inch overhang on each of the two narrow ends. Brush with melted butter. Whisk the eggs, cream, cheese and salt in a large bowl. Pour into the prepared pan and bake until the eggs are puffed on the edges and just set, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Imagine the omelet is divided into three equal sections running lengthwise. Top one section with a layer of the spinach, another with the prosciutto and the last with the peppers; leave a little space between each section. Cover with foil and let sit 10 minutes to allow the spinach to wilt and the toppings to warm.
• Remove the foil and, using the parchment for handles, carefully transfer the omelet to a cutting board. Starting at one of the short ends, lift the parchment up and use it to help tightly roll up the omelet, pulling the parchment back as you go so it does not get caught in the roll. Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the omelet into slices and arrange on a platter.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs: Soak 3 large eggs for 5 minutes in hot-not scalding-tap water. This will ensure that the omelet cooks faster, and the faster an omelet cooks, the more tender it's going to be. Crack the eggs into a small bowl or large bowl-shaped coffee mug. Season with a pinch of fine salt. Beat the eggs gently with a fork.
• TIP: I prefer a fork to a whisk for omelets because I don't want to work air into the eggs: Air bubbles are insulators and can slow down cooking if you're not careful.
• Heat the pan: Heat a 10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium to high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon room-temperature unsalted butter. Once melted, spread the butter around the pan with a basting brush to ensure coverage.
• TIP: Heat your pan empty for a few minutes before adding the butter: Even a nonstick surface is pocked with microscopic pores that eggs can fill and grab hold of. Heat expands the metal, squeezing these openings shut.
• Add the eggs: Pour the eggs into the center of the pan and stir vigorously with a silicone spatula for 5 seconds. (Actually, it's not so much a matter of stirring with the spatula as holding the spatula relatively still and moving the pan around to stir the eggs.)
• Let them cook: As soon as curds begin to form (that's the stuff that looks like scrambled eggs), lift the pan and tilt it around until the excess liquid pours off the top of the curds and into the pan. Then use the spatula to shape the edge and make sure the omelet isn't sticking. Move the spatula around the edge of the egg mixture to help shape it into a round and loosen the edge. Then walk away. That's right-let that omelet sit unaccosted for 10 long seconds so it can develop a proper outer crust. Don't worry: Your patience will be rewarded.
• Finish the omelet: Time for the "jiggle" step: Simply shake the pan gently to make sure the omelet is indeed free of the pan. Lift up the far edge of the pan and snap it back toward you. Then use the spatula to fold over the one-third facing you.
• Change your grip on the pan handle from an overhand to an underhand and move to the plate, which you might want to lube with just a brief brushing of butter to make sure things don't bind up in transit. Slide the one-third farthest from you onto the plate and then ease the fold over. Imagine that you're making a tri-fold wallet out of eggs-because that's exactly what you're doing. And just ease the pan over. There, that wasn't so hard.

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:

• Whip eggs with liquid, chives, salt, and pepper.
• Make sure all the white is fully incorporated.
• Melt butter over high heat in a 10" nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray.
• Heat until bubbly.
• Pour egg mixture into skillet, pulling them toward the center from each side.
• Remove from heat when eggs no longer run but are still quite moist.
• Add cheeses to top half of omlet, fold, then invert onto a plate.
• Let rest 1 minute before serving.
• Makes one omelet.

Steps:

• Using an 8-inch, non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
• Add beaten eggs.
• As the eggs begin to thicken, add the 3 cheeses evenly over the eggs.
• As cheese begins to melt, and before the eggs get brown, flip or turn egg mixture over.
• Continue to cook until the cheese melts.
• Turn omelette 1 more time.
• The finished omelette will be a nice yellow color with the cheese melted.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Toss sliced strawberries with preserves and sugar to coat; set aside.
• Heat an 8-inch omelette pan over medium high heat.
• Add butter or margarine, heating until bubbly.
• Pour in eggs; cook until set on the bottom but still moist, lifting edges gently with rubber spatula and rotating pan to let uncooked eggs run under.
• Spoon strawberry mixture over half of the eggs.
• Cook just until eggs fluff.
• Remove from pan; sprinkle with vermouth.
• Fold in half to enclose filling; slide onto serving plate.
• Top with sour cream and whole strawberry.

Steps:

• Mix eggs, salt, onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder in bowl.
• Heat a well oiled frying pan over medium heat for 2 minutes.
• Pour mixture into pan.
• Move pan to shape mixture into an even circle.
• If an large bubbles should appear while there is still liquid mixture, pop bubble using knife.
• Once cooked approximately 1/2 way through, flip eggs using large spatula.
• Immediately add 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, spread evenly.
• When cheese starts to melt, use spatula to slide eggs to a plate.
• Stack filling mixture on 1/2 of the circle of eggs while filling is hot.
• Using spatula, carefully close the omelet, hold closed till the filling melts the cheese.
