LEMON SOUFFLE OMELETTE

Steps:

• First of all, add the lemon rind and juice to the egg yolks, together with the sugar, and whisk until the mixture is slightly thick and creamy.
• Now start to melt the butter in the frying pan and turn the heat on the grill to its highest setting.
• Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then using a metal spoon lightly and quickly fold them into the yolks.
• Now pour the lot on to the foaming butter, then fold and stir a bit to prevent anything sticking to the bottom. After about 10 seconds, place the pan under the grill, so that the top can brown nicely.
• Serve immediately straight from the pan.
• If you like to make it slightly more spectacular you can warm a small ladle and pour brandy into it. Set light to the brandy, then carry your omelette to the table, pouring the lighted brandy over just before you get there.
