Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 pieces egg whites
- 2 tablespoons chickpea (gram) flour
- 2 tablespoons low-fat milk
- 0.25 cup diced onion
- 0.25 cup diced tomato
- 0.25 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh green chili
- 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, chickpea flour, and milk until well combined and slightly frothy.
Add the diced onion, tomato, green bell pepper, cilantro, and minced green chili to the egg mixture.
Stir in the turmeric, cumin, salt, and black pepper until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Pour half of the omelette mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom is set and slightly golden.
Gently flip the omelette with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the other side is set and cooked through.
Remove the cooked omelette from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture.
Serve the omelettes hot, garnished with additional fresh cilantro if desired.
