Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large egg
- 1 cup green cabbage
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons green onion
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese
Instructions
Start by finely shredding 1 cup of green cabbage. Chop green onions finely and mince the garlic clove.
Crack 3 large eggs into a bowl. Whisk them until well blended and season with 0.25 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until it starts to soften. Stir in the chopped green onions and 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes, cooking for another 1 minute.
Reduce the heat to low and evenly spread the sautéed cabbage mixture in the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs over the cabbage, tilting the pan gently to distribute evenly.
Cook the omelette on low heat for 3-4 minutes, until the base is set but the top is still slightly runny.
Sprinkle 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.
Gently fold the omelette in half, covering the cheese, and cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and the omelette to cook through.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a serving plate. Serve hot, garnished with extra green onions if desired.
