Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 0.25 medium, finely chopped red onion
- 0.5 medium, finely chopped tomato
- 1 small, finely chopped green chili
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
- 0.25 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon, freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper, then whisk until the eggs are well beaten and slightly frothy.
Stir in the finely chopped red onion, tomato, green chili, and cilantro into the whisked eggs.
Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and ground cumin to the egg mixture and whisk until all ingredients are well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 2 teaspoons of olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering but not smoking, pour the egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly.
Let the omelette cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to set and lightly brown.
Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette to ensure it is not sticking to the pan. If necessary, swirl the pan slightly to redistribute uncooked egg.
When the top of the omelette is almost set but still slightly creamy, carefully flip the omelette or fold it in half, whichever you prefer.
Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the omelette is fully cooked through.
Transfer the omelette to a serving plate. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve immediately.
