Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 medium, finely chopped red onion
- 0.5 medium, deseeded and finely chopped tomato
- 1 small, finely chopped green chili
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 0.25 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter or ghee
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and beat them thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Add the finely chopped red onion, tomato, green chili, and fresh cilantro to the beaten eggs.
Sprinkle in the ground turmeric, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything well to ensure the vegetables and spices are evenly distributed in the egg mixture.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the butter or ghee. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into the heated pan, spreading it out evenly.
Cook the omelette for about 3-4 minutes on one side, or until the edges start to set and the bottom is slightly golden.
Using a spatula, gently flip the omelette and cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully set and cooked through.
Once cooked, slide the omelette onto a serving plate. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro if desired and serve hot.
