Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Pumpkin (fresh or canned)
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil or butter
- 0.5 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
Instructions
If using fresh pumpkin, peel and cut it into small cubes, then steam or microwave until soft. Mash into a smooth puree.
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until light and frothy. Add the pumpkin puree, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper, and mix until well combined.
Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the pumpkin and egg mixture into the skillet. Swirl the pan gently to spread the mixture evenly.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the omelette. Cover the skillet with a lid and let cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the omelette is set and cooked through.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and fold it in half. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Pumpkin Omelette!
