CARAMELIZED ONION SAUSAGE & SPINACH STUFFED OMELETTE


Have breakfast like a King, so they said, and so they were right. Last week we talked about the nutritious benefits of eggs and that inspired me to get into my kitchen and whip up an egg recipe. And today morning was just the perfect day to cook this delicious stuffed omelette. I love a combination of spicy, crunchy and soft. All the elements on this dish came together so well that this is my new favorite egg dish. The caramelized onions add a sweetness that contrasts with the spice of the cayenne pepper, which I love.
INGREDIENTS


3 Eggs
1 Sausage Cooked and Chopped
1/8 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
1/8 Teaspoon Black Pepper
3 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
Pinch Salt
1/2 Bunch Sukuma Wiki
1 Onion

METHOD


Whisk the eggs


Add oil in a heated non stick pan


Add chopped onions


Cook onions until lightly browned


Add cayenne pepper


Add black pepper


Add salt


Cook the mixture a few minutes and add the chopped sausages


Add roughly chopped spinach


Turn heat to medium high and fry the ingredients well


Cook until the spinach has wilted 1-2 minutes


Pour mixture onto plate and set aside


In the same pan, pour in the beaten eggs


Allow to slowly cook, scramble slightly so that the eggs thicken up a bit


Continue cooking until the eggs have set and the bottom has cooked


Take the onion spinach sausage mixture from the plate


Line the bottom half part of the eggs with the sauteed mixture


Lift the upper half of the eggs and cover the half with the filling


Press the omelette gently so that filling adheres to the eggs


Use large spatula to lift the stuffed omelette from the pan


Set the omelette on a flat plate


 Perfect omelette filled with caramelized onions, stir fry sausage and spinach


This omelette serves two but you can easily devour it on your own, then no lunch later on


The stuffing is the best part of this omelette, next time I'll add more spinach because they were too delicious!


Garnish with sliced tomatoes and fresh cilantro


Slice your sausage spinach with caramelized onions omelette and devour


A close up of all that deliciousness yum!
