Tomato And Basil Omelette Recipes

Steps:

• Finely chop the tomato and tip into a bowl with the cheese, basil leaves, spring onion, half the olive oil and some salt and pepper.
• Heat the remaining oil in a small, non-stick frying pan, then swirl in the eggs. Cook until done to your liking, then spoon the tomato mix over half of the omelette. Fold omelette over the tomato, leave for about 30 secs, then slide onto a plate. Serve with a salad.

Steps:

• Cut each tomato in half and squeeze lightly to press out the seeds and juice. Chop the flesh coarsely and place in a saucepan with 2 tbsps of the olive oil and the bay leaf.
• Cook over a brisk heat for 15-30 minutes until all the moisture has evaporated and the mixture has dried out, almost to a paste. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile pick the leaves from the sprig of thyme and place in a bowl with the garlic and basil. Break in the eggs, season wth salt and pepper and beat with a fork. Add the tomato and mix well.
• Heat a frying pan over a high heat and add the remaining olive oil, swirling it round the pan. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring continuosly with a fork in a circular motion, until the eggs have set evenly but are still creamy.
• Leave the pan over the heat undisturbed for 30 seconds to brown the bottom. Remove it from the heat, turn out of the pan onto a plate and serve with some black Nice olives.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler or oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of the olive oil with garlic, and let sit for 10 minutes. Brush 1 side of the bread with the seasoned oil, and put it under the broiler until lightly browned, 2 or 3 minutes. Set the bread aside and leave the broiler on. Whisk the eggs with the parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Heat an 8 to 10-inch skillet over medium heat, and add 1 tablespoon of oil, swirling the pant to coat the bottom. Pour in half the egg mixture. Use a spatula to push the cooked egg toward center, tilting the pan in a circular motion so that the uncooked egg flows to the outside. When the eggs are no longer runny, remove the omelet from the heat and arrange half the tomato, avocado, and basil on top. Put under the broiler until the eggs are cooked and the vegetables are warm, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula fold the omelet in half, sprinkle it with cheese if you wish and then fold it in quarters. Cover it to keep, and cook the second omelet in the same way. Arrange the grilled bread on 2 plates and put the omelets on top. Garnish with basil or parsley if you choose. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to its highest setting and place the tomatoes on a square of foil underneath, turning occasionally to prevent burning. When the tomatoes are slightly scorched, remove from the grill, squashing them slightly to release the juices.
• Break the eggs into a bowl and mix with a fork. Add a small splash of water and mix. Add the chives and some black pepper, and beat some more. Set aside while you prepare the mushrooms.
• In a non-stick frying pan, heat the butter over a medium heat until foaming. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5-8 mins until tender, stirring every few mins. Remove and set aside.
• Briskly stir the egg mixture, then add to the hot pan (tilting it so that the mixture covers the entire base) and leave for 10 secs or so until it begins to set. With a fork, gently stir the egg here and there so that any unset mixture gets cooked.
• While the egg mixture is still slightly loose, spoon the mushroom mix onto one side of the omelette, and top with the cream cheese and basil leaves. Flip the other side of the omelette over to cover, if you like. Leave to cook for 1 min more, then cut in half and slide each half onto a plate. Serve immediately with the tomatoes on the side.

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt, and mix with a wire whisk.
• Melt the butter in a frying pan, and then add the egg mixture. tip the pan to let the eggs cover the whole bottom of the pan.
• Cook until the underside is lightly brown, and then scatter the tomato and basil over the omelet.
• Lift one side of the omelet with a spatula and fold it in half, then reduce the heat and cook for 30 seconds more.
• Use a spatula to slide the omelet onto a plate and serve!
