Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 1.5 tablespoons Dark Rum
- 2 tablespoons Whole Milk or Cream
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.125 teaspoons Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Brown Sugar
- 0.5 cups Shredded Cheese (optional, such as cheddar or gouda)
- 1 tablespoons Chopped Fresh Herbs (optional, such as parsley or chives)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, add the eggs, dark rum, whole milk or cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt fully and start to bubble, but do not let it brown.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly across the skillet and let it dissolve slightly into the butter, forming a caramelized base. This will add a subtle sweetness to your Rhumlet.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan gently to ensure it spreads evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently pull the edges of the omelet toward the center, allowing the uncooked egg on top to flow to the edges. Repeat this process until most of the egg is cooked but the top remains slightly runny.
If desired, sprinkle the shredded cheese and/or fresh herbs onto one half of the omelet. Fold the omelet in half, covering the filling (if using) and creating a semicircle shape.
Cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese (if used) is melted and the omelet is cooked through but still tender. Avoid overcooking to maintain its fluffy texture.
Carefully slide the Rhumlet onto a plate. Serve immediately, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your unique and flavorful creation!
