Steps to the Perfect Mushroom Omelette
Step 1: Heat butter in pan
Start by melting 1 tablespoon butter in a pan over medium heat. Butter instead of oil adds richness and highlights constituent flavours.
Step 2: Cook-Fry Mushrooms and Bell Peppers
Add sliced mushrooms and diced bell peppers to melted butter. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes to release mushroom juices and soften bell peppers. This step gives your omelette a rich, earthy flavour.
Step 3: Add spinach and seasonings
Add chopped spinach, salt, black pepper, and chilli flakes (if desired). Mix everything thoroughly to mix spices into veggies. Don't worry if the spinach seems big—it will shrink as it cooks.
Step 4: Stir-Fry Another Minute
The spinach should be totally wilted and the veggies well-seasoned after another minute. This fast stir-fry adds flavour and keeps veggies fresh and crisp.
Step 5: Remove and Set Apart
Set aside the veggies on a platter when ready. This prevents overcooking as you cook the eggs. They also make omelette assembly easier if kept separate.
Step 6: Add Butter and Eggs
Melt another tablespoon of butter in the same pan on low. Whisked eggs should be uniformly distributed in the pan. Eggs cook evenly without scorching over low heat.
Step 7: Cook and flip eggs slowly
Leave the eggs alone for 2-3 minutes to firm the edges. Turn the omelette with a spatula and cook for another minute. This makes a lovely, golden omelette without breaking.
Step 8: Add Stir-Fried Vegetables
After cooking both sides, add sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, and spinach to one half of the omelette. Top with cheese for richness if you like.
Step 9: Fold and Seal Omelette
Fold the omelette over the veggies and squeeze gently to keep the stuffing within. Continue cooking for 30 seconds to mix everything.
10: Serve and Enjoy!
Serve the omelette hot with bread, salad, or avocado slices after carefully sliding it onto a dish. This tasty omelette is ideal for breakfast, lunch, or supper!
