Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Tomato, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Green bell pepper, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 small Green chili, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil or unsalted butter
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and beat them until they are uniformly blended and the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Add the finely chopped red onion, tomato, green bell pepper, cilantro, and green chili to the eggs. Mix well.
Stir in the cumin powder, turmeric powder, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix together until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.
Heat the olive oil or unsalted butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan, spreading the ingredients evenly across the surface.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to set and the bottom is lightly browned.
Carefully flip the omelette using a spatula (you can cut it in half if this makes it easier) and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes, until fully set and cooked through.
Transfer the omelette to a plate, sprinkle with additional cilantro if desired, and serve hot.
