Cuisine: Asian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Prepare all vegetables by washing and finely chopping bell peppers, mushrooms, and green onions. Set aside in separate small bowls.
- In a mixing bowl, crack the 4 large eggs and whisk thoroughly until well combined and slightly frothy. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté the diced bell peppers and sliced mushrooms for 3-4 minutes until they become slightly tender and release their moisture.
- Remove the sautéed vegetables from the skillet and set aside. Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
- Return the skillet to medium heat and add another light coating of olive oil. Pour half of the egg mixture into the pan, tilting to spread evenly.
- When the egg is partially set but still slightly wet on top, sprinkle half of the sautéed vegetables and chopped green onions on one side of the omelet.
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the vegetables and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fully set and golden brown.
- Repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture and vegetables to create the second omelet.
- For the ginger sauce, mix minced ginger and soy sauce in a small bowl, stirring to combine thoroughly.
- Plate the omelets and drizzle the ginger sauce over the top just before serving. Garnish with additional chopped green onions if desired.
Tips
- Prep is Key: Chop all your vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking and a beautiful presentation.
- Temperature Control: Use medium heat to prevent burning and achieve that perfect golden-brown color.
- Don't Overfill: Be careful not to overstuff your omelet, as this can make folding difficult and cause tearing.
- Whisk with Purpose: Beat your eggs thoroughly to incorporate air, which will make your omelet light and fluffy.
- Clean Skillet Technique: Wipe your skillet clean between omelets to prevent burning and ensure a pristine cooking surface.
- Sauce Perfection: Let the ginger sauce sit for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Garnish Wisely: A sprinkle of fresh green onions can add a pop of color and a burst of fresh flavor to your final dish.
