SPRING OMELET ROLLS image

Yield 4 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the omelets:
About 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
8 eggs
4 tablespoons fresh herbs (basil, parsley, thyme, chives), rinsed and minced finely
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the dressing:
2 tablespoons light vinegar, such as champagne or sherry
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
For the filling:
1 small head radicchio, rinsed and cut into fine slivers
10 asparagus spears, lightly cooked and cooled
1 Belgian endive, heart removed, rinsed and cut into fine slivers
¼ cup roasted pine nuts or other tree nuts
3 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, herbs, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place a ten-inch crepe pan or skillet on the stove over high heat. Add just enough olive oil to coat the pan. When the oil is sizzling, pour ¼ of the egg mixture in to the pan, tipping the pan so that the eggs are evenly distributed. Cook until the omelet is set (this should take a minute or two). Using a spatula, flip the set omelet and let it cook for a moment more. Slide the cooked omelet on to a clean cutting board. Repeat this step until you have 4 delicate omelets. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil and sherry. In a large bowl, toss together the prepared vegetables, nuts and crumbled goat cheese. Pour on the dressing. Toss again. Add sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Gently toss one more time. To assemble the roll, place one cooled omelet on a cutting board. Place one quarter of the prepared filling on one end. Roll the omelet into the shape of a wrap. Repeat until you have 4 rolls. Serve at room temperature. Enjoy. 1. You can fill these rolls with any fresh vegetables you choose. 2. For a full meal, consider serving the rolls with some roasted potatoes, whole grain bread and a chilled bottle of white wine.
