Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoons red chili flakes
- 1 small green chili (finely chopped)
- 0.25 cup onion (finely chopped)
- 0.25 cup bell peppers (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoons turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon oil or butter
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.
Add red chili flakes, chopped green chili, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper to the eggs. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Prepare the vegetables by finely chopping the onion and bell peppers. Chop the fresh cilantro as well.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the oil or butter. Let it heat until shimmering.
Add the chopped onion and bell peppers to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until they soften and become slightly golden.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it spreads evenly to cover the entire pan.
Sprinkle the chopped cilantro evenly over the surface of the omelette.
Let the omelette cook on medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to set and the underside is golden brown.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half. Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute to ensure the inside is fully cooked.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with additional cilantro if desired, and serve hot.
