MUSHROOM AND CHEESE OMELET



Mushroom and Cheese Omelet image

Feel free to whisk a tablespoon of minced fresh herbs into the eggs before they go in the pan--parsley, chives, tarragon and chervil are some classic choices (alone or in combination). Another rich, creamy cheese can be used in place of the triple creme.

Time 25m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 to 3 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3 tablespoons warm Sauteed Mushrooms, recipe follows
2 tablespoons diced triple or double creme cheese, such as St. Andre, Brillat-Savarin or Fromager d'Affinois
Pinch of chopped fresh thyme or other herb, optional
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound mushrooms (any assortment), sliced
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a small bowl, and use a fork to beat them with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat an 8-inch omelet pan or shallow skillet (preferably nonstick) over medium-high heat. Add the butter, let it melt and swirl the pan so it coats the bottom evenly. Pour the eggs into the pan and quickly shake and swirl so the eggs completely cover the bottom. Let the eggs firm up on the bottom, about 30 seconds, then use a rubber spatula to lift the edges of the omelet up so any uncooked egg on the top runs underneath.
  • Sprinkle half of the eggs with the sauteed mushrooms and cheese and let it cook for another 30 seconds; the top should be moist but not quite runny (unless you like it runny). Flip the uncooked side of the eggs over the filling, and slide it onto a plate. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
  • Heat a very large skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil, then the mushrooms and garlic, season with salt and pepper and saute until the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms have turned nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Taste, adjust seasonings and serve hot.

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
Optional: 1/2 onion (diced)
1 red bell pepper (or yellow bell pepper, thinly chopped)
1 green bell pepper (thinly chopped)
1 tablespoon butter (or margarine)
Kosher salt (to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Crack eggs into a medium bowl. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder, if using. Vigorously beat together with a fork, incorporating as much air as possible. Reserve.
  • Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet or omelet pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the diced onion, if using, and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes until tender.
  • Add the chopped peppers and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or just until the bell peppers are slightly tender. Turn off the heat.
  • Let the vegetables cool slightly, then add them to the reserved beaten eggs and combine well.
  • Using several paper towels, carefully wipe off the skillet and place it back over medium-low heat.
  • Add the butter and move the pan around to make sure the butter coats the entire bottom.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
  • Tilt the pan as you lift the edges of the omelet to allow the uncooked parts in the middle to flow out to the edges. This helps the eggs to cook quicker and more evenly.
  • Allow your vegetable omelet to cook until the bottom of the eggs is solid but not brown at all.
  • Using a rubber spatula, flip it over entirely and let it cook for 1 to 2 minutes before transferring to a plate. Or, fold the omelet in half and slide it off the pan onto a plate. The interior should be moist but not raw. Cut in half for 2 servings and enjoy!
