Italian fluffed omelette | Kukskitchen

My SIL R is an amazing cook, lucky my bro, I would say. She luvs to try out a variety of cuisines. Recently she ventured in to presenting her inspired recipes on the television too. Bravo dear!

This post is dedicated to my dear SIL where I try her first TV recipe. See below for the video of her describing the recipe. I appologise to my non-mallu friends since this video is in malayalam.

I made a few minor changes to suit my customer - my son.

Here is how I made it.

Ingredients

1- Eggs - 2

2- Milk - 1/4 cup
Baking powder - a pinch
Salt to taste

3- Onion - 1/4, finely chopped
Hot dogs - 2, thinly sliced
Freshly ground pepper - to taste
Oregano - 2 pinches
Salt to taste

4- Butter- 2 tbsp

5- Grated mozzarella cheese - 2 tbsp

Method

- Separate the white from the yellow of the egg. Beat them in separate bowls.

- Add (2) to the yellow of the egg and mix well.

- Beat the white of the egg till fluffy and add the yellow mixture and whisk well.

- Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a flat pan till it melts.

- Pour the egg mixture, cover and cook for 2-3 minutes on medium flame. Take care not to burn the underside of your omelette. Turn off the flame and keep aside.

- Heat 1 tbsp butter in another pan and saute onion till translucent. Add the sausage slices and saute till cooked. Season with oregano, salt and pepper.

- Mix well and turn off the flame.

- Add this filling to one half of the omelette and top with grated cheese. Wait till the cheese starts to melt with the heat form the filling. Fold the omelette over.

- Carefully transfer to a plate and garnish with basil leaves.

Cook's tips:

- Add red chilli paste, as suggested in the original recipe for a spicy filling. Alternately add chopped green chilli.

- Use veggies as filling as an alternative to sausage. Green peppers, mushroom and tomato make a great filling.

- Serve with chips (finger fries) and steamed veggies for a complete meal.
