Bread Omelette
A quick and easy Indian-style breakfast made with eggs, spices, and sandwich bread, cooked until golden and crisp!
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/4 teaspoon green chili (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons onion (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon coriander leaves (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon unsalted butter (for toasting)
- 2 slices sandwich bread (white, brown, or whole wheat)
- a pinch black pepper
- 1 teaspoon mayonnaise (optional)
- extra coriander and green chilies (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Break the eggs into a bowl, and add salt and turmeric powder. Mix in the chopped onions, green chilies, coriander leaves, and water. Whisk until combined.
- Heat one teaspoon of butter in a pan over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and swirl the pan to spread it evenly.
- Before the egg sets, place two slices of bread on top, pressing gently. Flip the bread to coat the other side with the egg mixture.
- Sprinkle black pepper over the top and cook for about 30 seconds.
- Carefully flip the entire omelet and bread combo, folding any excess omelet towards the center. Add the remaining butter to the pan.
- Toast the sandwich for another minute until golden and crisp. Optionally, spread mayonnaise on the inside before folding.
- Remove from the pan, cut into triangles, and garnish with extra coriander or chilies if desired. Serve hot.
