Best Sizzling Ham And Gruyère Omelet Recipes

BAKED HAM AND CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Beat eggs, milk, and seasoned salt together in a large bowl.
• Stir in ham, cheese, and onion.
• Pour egg mixture into a greased 8-inch-square baking dish.
• Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes, or until the eggs are set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Cut into squares and garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.

SIZZLING HAM AND GRUYèRE OMELET

Steps:

• Using a whisk or a fork, beat the eggs in a small bowl until frothy.
• Heat the butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ham and sauté for 1 minute, or until crisp.
• Pour the eggs into the pan, tilting the pan gently to evenly distribute the eggs over the ham. Let the eggs cook and set for about 5 seconds.
• Using a silicone or rubber spatula, gently pull the cooked egg from the edges toward the center of the pan, while allowing the liquid egg to run underneath and onto the hot pan. After about 20 seconds, or when the eggs look cooked but are still moist, sprinkle the omelet with the Gruyère cheese.
• Using the spatula, fold the omelet in half. Cook the omelet for another 30 seconds, or until the cheese is melted. Tip the pan over a serving plate so that the omelet slides onto the plate bottom side up.

BAKED GRUYERE AND SAUSAGE OMELET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly butter an 8 by 8-inch baking dish.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sausage and cook until brown, about 5 minutes. Set the pan aside to cool.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper, to taste, until smooth, about 20 seconds. Add the red bell pepper, 1 cup of Gruyere cheese and 1/4 cup of parsley. Stir in the onion mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cut the baked omelet into wedges and sprinkle with remaining parsley before serving.
• Cook's Note: To make individual servings, divide the batter between 4 buttered 8-ounce ramekins. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes.

GOAT CHEESE OMELET WITH MIXED HERBS, LYONNAISE POTATOES, GLAZED HAM AND TEXAS TOAST

Steps:

• In a 4-cup liquid measuring cup or large bowl with a spout, gently whisk the eggs with the heavy cream until blended. Whisk in the herbs.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Stir the egg mixture again, then pour into the pan. Immediately start stirring with a rubber spatula and scraping around the edges of the pan without stopping. Add the salt. As soon as the eggs are just scrambled but still quite wet, spread the eggs in an even layer on the bottom of the pan. Add the cheese in a line down the eggs, perpendicular to the pan handle. Tilt the pan at a 45-degree angle to your serving plate and start nudging the edge of the egg closest to you to roll the top third of the egg over the filling in the center. Keep nudging to roll again into a three-fold omelet. The final roll should flip the omelet out of the pan and onto your plate.
• Mix the paprika, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and a pinch of salt; cook, tossing about every 5 minutes, until evenly golden brown, about 15 minutes total. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the paprika mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Combine the maple syrup and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Preheat a flat top grill or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and brush with oil. Sear the ham until golden, flipping halfway through, 2 minutes per side. Glaze the ham with the maple syrup mixture with a heatproof brush and cook 1 minute longer.
• Add the toast to the flat top and toast 1 to 2 minutes per side. Spread with butter and cut in half diagonally.

SAVORY GRUYèRE BREAD WITH HAM

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350ºF. Butter and flour a metal 9 × 5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Stir in the chopped ham, scallions if using, thyme, and 1¾ cups (7 ounces) of the Gruyère (reserving the rest for topping). In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and buttermilk. Add the wet mixture to the flour mixture and stir to combine. The batter will be thick.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly, smoothing the top. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup (1 ounce) cheese over the top. Bake until the top springs back when lightly pressed and a skewer inserted in the center comes out with some moist crumbs attached, 45 to 55 minutes.
• Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let it cool for 10 minutes. Then remove the bread from the pan and let it cool completely on the wire rack.
