Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs egg whites
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by separating the egg whites from the yolks of 4 large eggs. Place the egg whites in a mixing bowl.
Whisk the egg whites vigorously until they are frothy. This helps to infuse air, ensuring a fluffy omelette.
Season the egg whites with 0.25 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper, and whisk again to incorporate.
Prepare the vegetables: wash 1 cup of fresh spinach and halve 6 cherry tomatoes.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Add the spinach to the pan and sauté for about 1 minute until it wilts slightly.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the pan and continue to cook for another minute until they soften.
Pour the whisked egg whites over the sautéed vegetables, ensuring an even layer.
Let the omelette cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the surface is mostly set.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of feta cheese evenly across one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the cheese-covered half.
Allow the omelette to cook for an additional 1 minute, helping the cheese to melt slightly.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional black pepper or fresh herbs if desired.
