Best Family Sized Omelette Recipes

FAMILY-SIZE TOMATO, BACON AND GARLIC OMELET

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Fry the bacon in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato and bell pepper and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 6 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer the mixture to a paper towel-lined plate and wipe the skillet clean with paper towels. Return the skillet to medium heat.
• Melt the butter in the skillet, swirling to coat the skillet, until the foaming subsides. Add the eggs and bacon mixture to the pan and cook, stirring gently in a circular motion, until the mixture is slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
• Use a rubber spatula to pull the cooked edges of the egg toward the center of the pan, tilting the pan so the uncooked egg runs to the cleared edge of the pan. Repeat until the bottom of the omelet is just set but the top is still runny, about 1 minute.
• Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the top of the omelet begins to set but is still moist, about 5 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the omelet, cover, and let it sit until the cheese partially melts, about 1 minute. Slide half of the omelet onto a serving platter using a rubber spatula, then tilt the skillet so the remaining omelet flips over onto itself, forming a half-moon shape. Cut the omelet into wedges and serve immediately.

CLASSIC FRENCH OMELETTE WITH SIDE SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the Dijon mustard, shallot and red wine vinegar in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and 3 tablespoons chives. Set aside.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch nonstick pan over medium heat. When the butter starts to bubble, add the eggs and the cold cubed butter, and begin to stir with a rubber spatula. Continue to stir until the eggs are half set, then reduce the heat to low.
• When the omelette is soft, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and top with the cheese on one side. Let the omelette sit over low heat, without touching it, for 1 minute, to let the heat of the pan set the eggs. Roll the omelette over the cheese so it forms a jelly roll shape, then roll the whole omelette onto a large dish. Lightly spread the remaining tablespoon butter over the omelette to coat. Toss the lettuce with the vinaigrette and serve alongside the omelette. Garnish the omelette with the remaining tablespoon chives.

FAMILY SIZED OMELETTE

Steps:

• 1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and milk together (like you typically would to begin to make scrambled eggs).
• 2. Add all of the remaing ingredients into the egg/milk mixture and give it a couple of good stirs.
• 3. Pour the mixture into a large, lightly greased baking pan and cover with foil.
• 4. Toss in the oven at 375 degrees, and in about 35 minutes (when the rest of the house gets up), you'll have a family sized omelet!
• 5. **About 15-20 minutes into the cook time you can take off the foil cover. Feel free to give your omelet a little bit of a toss-around while it's cooking**

OMELET FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Add eggs, water, salt, and herbs to blender and combine on high for 5 to10 seconds.
• Heat a 10-inch non-stick aluminum pan over medium-high heat. Once pan is hot add 1 teaspoon butter and brush around surface of pan. Using a 4 1/2-ounce ladle, place 1 ladle full of egg mixture into center of pan and stir vigorously with rubber spatula for 5 seconds. As soon as a semi-solid mass begins to form lift pan and move around until the excess liquid pours off into pan. Using your spatula move around the edge of the egg mixture to help shape into round and loosen edge. Let sit for 10 seconds without touching. Place 1/4 cup of filling onto 2/3 of surface of omelet.
• Shake pan to loosen from pan. Left up the far edge of the pan and snap it back toward you. Using your spatula, fold over 1/3 of the omelet without filling. Slide omelet onto plate and fold over so that omelet is a tri-fold. Coat with 1/2 teaspoon butter.
• Repeat process above for remaining 3 servings. Serve immediately.
