Favorite omelette recipe

[alfresco]

Start with goose eggs.

Just bought half a dozen this morning at the farmers market.

Was with you 100% (especially on low and slow) until the ketchup. Don’t really like it all that much. Tons of hot sauce all day for me. I have about 30 different hot sauces in my fridge at all times.

I knew I would get 50-50 responses on this. I have this conversation a lot. Its actually like 25% of people like catsup on eggs. I just love catsup and Heinz is my boy. If I run out its a bad day.

I actually put apricot preserves and other jams in my prison slop scramble and it’s fire as fuck. I know @Palifter is excited to try after his show lol.

I can dig that. I like raspberry or strawberry jams with eggs on a toast or bread type. Or a sweet jam with a hot sauce. Right now Sriracha is 2nd in command to emperor Heinz.

Just curious as to what area calls it “catsup”? I think that was the old, original word for it. My grandmother is the only one I ever heard refer to it as that

I call it ketchup but spell checker kept changing it and I didn’t feel like fixing it as I was using the word several time.

I've yet to master the fold over. I'm thinking I'm just making it too thick where it breaks when I fold...469ml ew + 3 eggs

You might be cooking too long or at too high temp. Most of the time my heat level is at the lowest or next to lowest setting for the range top. If your egg is breaking it’s cooked too much.

I either cook one side and flip when able, cook other side very briefly and fold or cook one side only with lid and once the top looks like the last of liquid is going to be solid I then fold. And yeah, use a clear lid for most of the cooking. It helps cook throughout the egg which allows shorter and more thorough cooking compared to burning edges in effort to cook the middle.

white and yokes need to be cooked separate. Fully cooked whites, runny yokes plus a cup of veg, spinach, tri color peppers, green onions, frozen corn gives a nice pop of texture, cherry tomatoes. And of course some kind of meat, sausage, bacon, ground beef. Every color is a different nutrient panel. Me personally, I want and need all of them.

Use two pans/skillets. Whisk the shit out of your eggs, i use 4-6 whole eggs. Add a pinch of salt to the whisked eggs. Heat pan one on medium, once hot add butter and garlic. Once it gets to temp, add chopped red bell peppers, onions and ham. Let it cook for about 2-3 minutes. Heat pan two on medium-low, add butter once it's hot. Once pan two is hot, add the whisked eggs and let them cook until the bottom hardens a bit, and you know it can be folded. At this point dump pan one onto the omelette and slide the pan back and forth to settle the bits. Let this cook covered for 1 min and then fold in half, kill the heat and cover for 2 mins. Add cheese before you cover if that's your bag.

Top with hot sauce, i prefer a siracha mayo or cover with avocado and pico. My Mexican wife keeps pico on demand 24/7. Or if you are really lucky, add fresh salsa verde from roasted veggies in a molcajete. Finished off with a squeeze of lime.

Those wraps are amazing..try and limit it to 1 a day I assume the fiber in them isn't the kind we want lol. The egg ones are straight protein 25 calories each but $6 for 6

I'm just playing bro. Enjoy. If you gained 20 pounds of muscle your body would be a furnace though

A lot of this I think will depend on your current calorie restrictions but I just made an omelette with cheese, a piece of chicken sausage cut up into small pieces, bacon, and onion and it was delicious. It was about 700 calories though...

There's no trick to the flip. Put your eggs in the pan, stir or don't stir, then let them sit for a few minutes and cook. Put your ingredients on top the use a spatula to flip one side over.
