This flavorful omelette combines the rich, tangy taste of blue cheese with the freshness of herbs and the mild bite of spring onions. It’s a quick and easy meal, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even a light lunch!
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or cream (optional for creaminess)
- 1/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, or dill), chopped
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Whisk the Eggs:
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with milk or cream (if using) and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
- Prepare the Filling:
- Crumble the blue cheese and chop the herbs. Thinly slice the spring onions and set aside.
- Cook the Omelette:
- Heat the butter or olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until they begin to set around the edges.
- Add the Filling:
- Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese, chopped herbs, and sliced spring onions evenly over one half of the omelette.
- Let the omelette cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly soft in the center.
- Fold and Serve:
- Carefully fold the omelette in half over the filling. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the blue cheese melts and the eggs are fully cooked.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
Tips and Variations
- Herb Options: Use any fresh herbs you have on hand, like thyme, tarragon, or basil, to customize the flavor.
- Add Veggies: For added texture and flavor, sauté some spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers before adding the egg mixture.
- Cheese Variation: Swap out the blue cheese for feta or goat cheese for a milder taste.
This omelette is a rich, flavorful, and satisfying meal that’s perfect for a quick yet gourmet bite!
