SAUSAGE CARROT & ONION STUFFED OMELETTE


Breakfast has always been the best part of starting my morning. Lets get a bit theoretical about omelettes a bit as I gather ingredients for today's omelette. As you know an omelette is usually made from beaten eggs fried with oil or butter without stirring like its usually done with scrambled eggs. The omelette is commonly folded around fillings like mushrooms, cheese, ham, chives, bacon or vegetables. Sometimes you can have a combination of two or more of the ingredients. Some interesting omelettes include the Nargesu an Iranian omelette made with spinach and fried onions spiced with salt, garlic and pepper. Egg foo yung/oystee omelette is a Chinese omelette. Tamagoyaki is a traditional  Japanese omelette where eggs are beaten with mirin, bonito flakes, soy sauce, water and sugar. So many ways to cook the omelette and I have just started, I must say I still don't have a favourite, yet. Let's get cooking loves!

BROCCOLI & ONION STUFFED OMELETTE


Growing up I never, I mean loathed broccoli! They just seemed like these tasteless mushy vegetables that did not even smell nice. Now that I love cooking and trying out different combinations, I know better. I love broccoli better. This stuffed omelette is healthy and light, plus the added benefit of lots of veggies, its great for someone who wants to loose weight. The trick to enjoying vegetables is not to over cook them as they will be soggy and tasteless. Adding spices is another way that you can up the flavour of vegetables especially if you plan to eat them without any sides. Breakfast is important so make it healthy and delicious.

CHICKEN MIXED VEGGIE STUFFED OMELETTE


Now this has become my favorite omelette thus far! Why? It has CHICKEN! hahaha! I guess I just love chicken. You do not need to rack your brain about what to do with left over chicken. It may be to small for a full meal but when you shred you can use as stuffing.

ZUCCHINI CARROT & ONION STUFFED OMELETTE


Stuffed omelettes are the best thing to happen to my breakfast. I always used to have my eggs just plain sandwiched between slices of bread. Then I discovered stuffed omelette, my life has never been the same! I know, sounds exaggerated, but oh so true. I have been having so much fun coming up with different stuffing for my omelette. Today I wanted to incorporate veggies, especially vibrant crunchy vegetables. This is a great way to have someone who does not like to eat veggies enjoy them. After all, most people do not like vegetables because they tend to be overcooked so in turn become mushy. The best way to make vegetables delicious is to satay them and add some spices which elevates the flavor to another level. Omelettes need not be boring, I promise this is perfect!

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.
