Omelette Noodle Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs (free-range is recommended)
  • pinch of salt
  • pinch of pepper
  • few spoons of milk (optional)
  • cooking oil or butter

Equipment

Stove, a frying pan, spatula, knife, bowl and fork (to beat the egg)

Method

1. Make the “Dough”
  • Crack all 4 eggs into a bowl. Make sure the bowl is not too full, if it is get a little bit bigger one
  • Add (optional, only if you like it) 2 spoon of milk into the bowl, to give just a hint of creamyness. (If your eggs are not that big, maybe 1 spoon is enough, you don’t want the “dough” become watery)
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. (don’t make it too salty !)
  • Beat the egg with a fork (or if you have hand mixer, it will be useful – but simple fork with do). Make sure the “dough” is mixed properly (become only 1 color, the white and the yolk mixed together) and you get a bubbly “dough”
2. Prepare the Frying Pan
  • Heat a frying pan on your stove with medium heat
  • make ready your favorite cooking oil. I would recommend butter to give you maximum taste. If you don’t realize, butter is healthier than margarine contrary to popular belief. Read this healthy cooking oil article for further info.
3. Make a stack of thin omelette
  • Put your butter/oil on the frying pan only on thin layer. Use spatula to even them up.
  • Wait until the oil heat up
  • Pour small amount of your “dough” above enough to cover the whole frying pan, but not too thick
  • Immediately flip the omelette on the other side once form a layer.
  • Take it off from the frying pan once you have the brownish color all around (see picture below)
