Prawn And Potato Omelette Recipes

PRAWN & POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Peel and cube the potatoes. Cook in a pan of boiling water for 15 mins or until tender. Drain and mash with 4 tbsp olive oil until smooth. Season to taste. Heat the cheese sauce in a pan, stir through the prawns and spinach, and cook gently for 1-2 mins. Spoon the mixture into a medium pie dish and top with the mash. Pop under a hot grill and cook for 6 mins until golden and the filling is bubbling.

JILL'S ASIAN OMELETTE

Steps:

• Crack 2 eggs into a small bowl and lightly beat in 1 tbsp rice wine, salt, pepper and 1⁄2 tsp sesame oil.
• To cook the omlette heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a hot wok or large frying pan over high heat, swirling it around to coat the entire surface. Pour in the beaten eggs and quickly swirl to form an even omelette. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the egg is firm, then lower the heat.
• To fill, arrange some prawns in the centre, top with bean sprouts and watercress and cook gently for a further 2 or 3 minutes.
• To serve loosen the edges with a knife, then gently slide the omelette onto a warm plate, folding it over. Keep it warm while you make three more omelettes. Drizzle with oyster or hoisin sauce to serve.

PRAWN AND CHIVE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Break the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a large metal whisk. Season with a little salt and some freshly ground black pepper, then stir in the snipped chives. Drain the prawns in a sieve, then tip them on to some kitchen paper to soak up any excess moisture.
• Brush a small non-stick frying pan with just enough oil to lightly coat the base and place it over a medium heat. Pour the eggs into the frying pan. As the eggs begin to set, use a wooden spoon to draw the cooked egg towards the centre. Do this 5 or 6 times, working pour way around the pan. As the cooked egg is moved, the uncooked egg will run into the gaps and begin to cook.
• Scatter the prawns over the omelette and cook for a further 2-3 minutes or until the eggs are just set. Season with a little more pepper then carefully loosen the sides with a heatproof palette knife and fold the omelette over. Slide it on to a warmed plate and serve with a large, lightly dressed salad.
