Omelettes Discussion Thread - General

[IMG]http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2738/images/2738_MEDIUM.jpg[/img] I often make an omelette if I'm hungry. It's easy, and it doesn't require much preperation on forehand. In fact, you can pretty much put anything in one. Personally, I find potatoes and onions to be an alternative. Throw in some cheese and/or sliced pepperoni and you're golden. Enough about me; what do you use in your omelettes? It would be interesting to see your combinations and perhaps even try them out.

Jelly Beans and Blue Cheese. But seriously, I normally have a simple cheese and ham one, I need to try out some more variations.

Tomatoes and Egg all the time. Occasionally some onion. Eat it together with some white bread and it'll become the best breakfast ever.

bacon and onion omelettes are the shit.

Just bacon and cheese. A lot of cheese. Though sometimes I use onions and tomatoes.

Bacon, green onions, and cheese, did my own epic meal time and covered it in bacon.

Onions and some kind of zesty cheese. Hot sauce for extra zing.

Onions (lots of them), tomatoes, salsa, cheese of course, plenty of spices. My secret ingredient that you will all now know and love: nutmeg. Only a little, because it's easy to add too much and overpower the other flavors.

Onions, potatoes, and bell pepper. Cook it in olive oil then smother it in either fresh cut salsa or Pace salsa with no additives then its fuckin delicious

omelette du fromage On topic: I have never tried an omelette before, How good are they?

They're just scrambled egg parcels with filling inside, ham cheese tomato, or other flavour combinations, fuckin awesome

I eat Omelettes with cheddar mozarella, ham and bacon (and Peppers and Onions) if I have them.

I tried to make a French style omelette once but it's quite a different technique from your normal omelette, and it wasn't as fluffy as I wanted it to be.

The usual chopped green onions, diced tomatoes, ham, and cheese is probably what i make the most. Back in middle school omelette's were pretty much the only thing i knew how to cook so i tended to experiment a lot.

Guess what I'm eating for breakfast :v:

[QUOTE=Yur|ko;28273840]Guess what I'm eating for breakfast :v:[/QUOTE] I'm debating whether or not I should do it as well.

I'm gonna cook an omelette! :dance: [media]http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/9607/eggfail.jpg[/media] :crying:

That looks gross. Your pan probably wasn't hot enough.

I love me a nice bacon omelette with potatoes on the side. Drizzle with tomato ketchup and nom away. Also tastes good if you replace the omelette with bacon and a couple fried eggs.

[QUOTE=Shadaez;28294057]That looks gross. Your pan probably wasn't hot enough.[/QUOTE] I cook it with low heat all the time, especially on a small pan. If you cook it hot, it won't solidify from the inside before it burns to crisp on the outside.

[QUOTE=Chaotic Lord;28287840]I'm gonna cook an omelette! :dance: :crying:[/QUOTE] The ticket is to fry all your vegetables (well, onions and meat and so on) on high heat on beforehand, then turn the heat way down and make the omelette itself. If you put a lid on top as well, you will pretty much be guaranteed a perfect heat throughout the omelette.

[QUOTE=Shadaez;28294057]That looks gross. Your pan probably wasn't hot enough.[/QUOTE] No, I had too much egg on not large enough pan. It was tasty though.

[editline]26th February 2011[/editline] I used to be a fucking god at omelette making.

I whack cheese and ham in there and slam it on a plate with some HP fruity. Gorgeous.

Everytime I try to flip an omelette, it breaks. I just stick to making scrambled egg. I normally add bacon + cheese + mushrooms. Potato on it sounds really nice :D Is it cooked beforehand or can I just dice some potato and throw it in?

You can never beat a Denver omlette or a Mexican omlette. NEVER.

Omelette with mexicana (spicy) cheese. Holy shit son
