Fine Herb And Cheese Omelette Recipes

HERBED CREAM CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Mix the cream cheese with the cilantro in a bowl, adding salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat one-quarter of the butter in a well-seasoned omelet pan or 8 inch non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. When the butter is hot and bubbling, swirl it around in the pan.
• Just before the butter begins to brown, beat 2 of the eggs and pour into pan. Lower the heat.
• After 10 seconds or so, the omelet will coagulate. Push the omelet to one side of the pan with a spoon or spatula, and let the raw egg run over the cleared skillet. Repeat this one more time, then take the skillet off the heat.
• Dab one quarter of the herbed cream cheese along the middle of the omelet from one side to the other. Season the omelet with additional salt and pepper to taste. If it has not completely set, place the pan over medium heat for a half minute longer. When the omelet is set, slide it from the pan onto a plate so that the omelet rolls up and the herbed cream cheese runs along the length of the roll. Serve it right away. Make three more omelets the same way, making sure the pan and butter get good and hot before adding the beaten eggs. Serve each one as soon as it is cooked.

FINE HERB AND CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Finely chop the herbs and combine them in a bowl with the eggs and milk. Whisk together lightly.
• Heat the butter over a medium heat before adding the egg mixture. When the egg has cooked on the bottom and is custardy on top, sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top until melted. Fold each side evenly into the middle before sliding out of the pan onto a warm plate. Season and enjoy.

• Pour egg mixture into skillet, pulling them toward the center from each side.
• Remove from heat when eggs no longer run but are still quite moist.

HERBED CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• In a bowl, beat eggs and seasonings. Melt butter in a skillet. Add egg mixture; cook over medium heat. As eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When eggs are completely set, remove from the heat. Place cheese over half of the eggs. Fold in half and transfer to a warm platter.

CHEESE OMELETTE WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Combine eggs, milk, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, chervil, Italian herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix with a fork.
• Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture. Cook until egg starts to set, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with dried basil and lay sliced Gouda cheese on top. Cut into 2 halves using a spatula. Fold each omelette in half and turn over. Cook for another minute. Serve garnished with fresh basil.

FINES HERBS OMELETTE

Steps:

• To make the Fines Herbs, combine the parsley, chervil, chives and tarragon in a small bowl and set aside.
• Break the eggs into a small bowl, and then add the milk, 2 tablespoons Fines Herbs, salt and pepper and whisk with a fork.
• Preheat an 8-inch nonstick saute pan over medium hot heat and swirl the olive oil into the pan. Pour in the egg mixture and swirl it in the pan. For a few seconds, gently stir the egg mixture with a heat resistant rubber spatula (as if you were going to make scrambled eggs) and then swirl the eggs in the pan to make a nice round appearance. Reduce the heat to avoid any color or scorching. Continue cooking for about 1 minute. The eggs will be set on the bottom, but slightly liquid on top.
• Flip the omelet, and remove it from the heat. Crumble the goat cheese over the center of the omelet and top it off with the roasted peppers. Tri-fold the omelet and plate immediately.

OMELET WITH FINES HERBES

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, salt, a couple of dashes of hot sauce and a couple of dashes of Worcestershire sauce. Whisk only enough to integrate the eggs. You dont want to whip too much air into them or make them frothy. Put the skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Swirl the butter around as it melts so it coats the whole surface of the pan. When the butter is melted (but not browned), lower the heat and pour in the egg mixture. Use a fork to stir the eggs slightly, as if you were scrambling them. Then, allow the eggs to cook, undisturbed for about 15 to 30 seconds. Sprinkle the herbs over the eggs.
• Lift the handle of the pan up tilting the pan away from you and towards the heat. This tilting should cause the omelet to slide down in the pan a little. Fold the edge closest to you towards the center. Fold the other edge towards the center and tilt the pan over the center of a plate so it lands, seam side down. Serve immediately with buttered toast slices.

FRESH HERBS OMELET

Steps:

• Break 2 eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste (about 1/8 teaspoon salt), and 2 teaspoons milk. Whisk half the herbs into the eggs and mix well.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. When the oil feels hot when you hold your hand above it, pour in the eggs, scraping every last bit into the pan. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, jerk the pan quickly away from you then back towards you so that the omelet folds over on itself. Tilt the pan and roll out onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining eggs and herbs, and serve.

OMELETTE WITH HERBS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl whisk eggs and water together and then season with salt and pepper.
• Stir in herbs (parsley - thyme or your favorites).
• *Note: In the original directions, an omlet pan was used using only half of the egg mixture and half of the butter at a time -- making two complete omlets seperately, rather than the way I indicated in the direction below.
• In a skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat and add the egg mixture to pan.
• If using cheese, add cheese on top of eggs.
• Let eggs set around edges and then lift edges and tilt pan, so uncooked eggs will go under the cooked eggs.
• Cook until eggs are almost set (1 -2 minutes) and then using a spatula, roll 1/3 of omlet to center.
• Tilt pan and slide omlet onto plate.
• Garnish with chives, if desired.

PERFECT CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, salt, and pepper until frothy.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium until your hand feels warm when held about 2 inches above the surface. Add oil or butter, and swirl to coat the bottom of skillet evenly.
• Pour whisked eggs into skillet; let set slightly. With a heatproof flexible spatula, push eggs from edge toward center; tilt pan to let egg fill spaces. Repeat until omelet is just set, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle cheese and scallion over half of the omelet, leaving the half closer to the skillet handle uncovered (to make it easier to remove from pan). Using the same spatula, gently fold omelet over filling. Tilt skillet, and slide filled omelet onto a serving plate (don't worry if there are a few rips).
