Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 100 grams smoked Hungarian sausage (kielbasa or similar)
- 1 small red bell pepper
- 1 small yellow onion
- 1 teaspoon paprika (preferably Hungarian sweet paprika)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until well combined. Set aside.
Dice the smoked Hungarian sausage into small bite-sized pieces.
Chop the red bell pepper and yellow onion into fine pieces.
In a nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the diced sausage to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it starts to brown slightly.
Add the chopped onion and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Sprinkle the paprika over the sausage and vegetable mixture and stir to evenly coat.
Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it spreads evenly over the filling.
Lower the heat to medium-low and cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until the bottom of the omelet is set but the top remains slightly runny.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half. Continue cooking for another minute to ensure the inside is fully set.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
