Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the mixture until it is well combined and slightly frothy. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until they are soft and the onion is translucent.
Add the diced tomato to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Transfer the cooked vegetables to a bowl and wipe the skillet clean.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and return the skillet to the stove over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting it to ensure the eggs cover the bottom evenly.
Cook without stirring, for about 5 minutes or until the eggs start to set around the edges.
Sprinkle the sautéed vegetables evenly over one half of the omelette.
Add the crumbled feta cheese on top of the vegetables.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filling.
Allow the omelette to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to let the cheese melt.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve hot and enjoy your Vegetarian Classic Romanian Omleta!
