Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 100 grams halloumi cheese
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 30 grams baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Slice the halloumi cheese into thin, bite-sized pieces.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in halves and roughly chop the fresh parsley.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with salt and black pepper, then set aside.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add the halloumi slices and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the halloumi from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the baby spinach and cherry tomatoes, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted and the tomatoes are softened.
Lower the heat to medium-low, then pour the whisked eggs into the pan. Tilt the pan to spread the eggs evenly and let them cook for 1 minute undisturbed.
Scatter the cooked halloumi pieces evenly over one half of the omelette. Cover the pan with a lid and allow the omelette to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half to cover the halloumi filling. Slide the omelette onto a serving plate.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm. Enjoy your Halloumi Omelette!
