I have NEVER successfully cooked an omelette in my life. It ALWAYS comes out as scrambled eggs. The challenge was set.
Ingredients
- Eggs
- Milk
- Butter
- Pepper
- Tabasco
- Tomato; diced
- Mushroom; chopped
- Red onion; sliced
The trick seems to be patience. I let this baby sit in the pan untouched for about 3 minutes longer than my gut instinct told me to. The little devil on my shoulder was SCREAMING at me to lift a side up, but I resisted. Eventually I added tomato, mushrooms and red onion, and tentatively slid the spatula in. I flipped and slid and ... success!
The analysis
The centre was still quite runny, so my technique needs a lot of work, but broadly, I succeeded. It was indeed an omelette.
