πŸ“ Instructions

9 steps
1

Wash and finely chop the fresh spinach, green chili, onion, tomato, and cilantro. Set them aside.

2

Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the eggs together until fully combined and slightly frothy.

3

In a non-stick skillet, heat the oil or ghee on medium heat. Once hot, add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 15–20 seconds until aromatic.

4

Add the chopped onion and green chili to the skillet. SautΓ© for 2–3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

5

Stir in the chopped tomato and spinach. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften.

6

Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the veggies in the skillet. Tilt the pan slightly to distribute the eggs evenly.

7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the omelet. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the omelet cook for 3–4 minutes until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted.

8

Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with the chopped cilantro.

9

Serve hot with toast or a side of chutney for an Indian-inspired breakfast or meal!
