Now we have arrived at the first thing that I learned to cook as a student when I moved to Glasgow at the ripe old age of eighteen, the omelette. Conveniently it was a French roommate of mine that taught me how to make it. He was a bit of a knob but he knew how to make a fine omelette and his wisdom has stayed with me five years later. I am going to briefly explain how to make an omelette now and then tell you all the stuff you can lob in it.
Firstly all you need is a slab of butter, some eggs, some cheese and a whisk but if you don't have that use a fork. If you don't have a fork use your finger.
Step 1: Crack some eggs, if you do it with one hand its proven you look cooler.
2: Stir until their nice mixed
3: Put some music on now because your having a great time.
4: Butter the pan, followed by your yellow eggy mix goodness.
5: leave it a wee minute until its cooked all the way through and wobble the pan around so there is no runny bits.
6: Time to lob your ingredients in, for talking sake lets say you have no imagination and you just put some cheese in.
7: Transfer to the plate and wet your chops.
The omelette is a great cost effective meal for breakfast for breakfast lunch or dinner. Apparently the omelette has been around since the 1700's and became more popular when Napoleon got one in a little town in the south of France. He thought it was so delicious that he got all the eggs in the south of France and made the biggest omelette ever and fed it to his loyal homies.
Some other great stuff you can put in your omelette are:
Crumbled bacon, diced mushrooms, diced tomatoes, diced onion and Cheddar
Avocado
Swiss cheese and turkey bacon
Spinach, onion, red pepper and feta
