My goto omelet.

Warm the pan with coconut oil. Also seasons the cast iron pan nicely.

Caramelize a full onion, add crumbled keiska(casing removed) then thinly sliced weselina sausage. Once one side of the sausage is browned, I add chopped spinach and tomato. Once the juices are boiling nicely, I'll drain it over just one side of rye bread, two or three slices. And set that on the side. Then I add some real ghee butter, and add 3 eggs. Start mixing everything in. When one side is solid enough, I flip the omelet over and add extra sharp cheddar to melt. Fold the omelet, making room on the pan, add the slices of rye back onto the pan to toast a bit. Roll the omelet onto the slice, making room for another piece of bread, and then fold them into each other when one slice of bread side is finished toasting. Basically making a sandwich in the pan. But then I lay it out on a plate so the bread is fanned on the side and eat it with a fork.

I usually do 3 eggs with shitakes, spinach, diced tomatoes, diced turkey/chicken, and shallots with salted Kerry Irish Butter. Will add some gouda or cheddar along with some pork product if not being strict.

I have found that I really like zucchini in my egg as well as onion garlic tomatoes and seasoning. Skin it and slice it and food in a little after onion.

That seems like a lot of work for an omelet. I just throw some egg, cheese, and whatever I need to get rid of in the fridge

While I generally like lots of "stuff" in an omelette or scramble, lately, I've wanted it simple. Gorgonzola or feta and nothing else but seasoning.

We have a winner. Fresh mozzarella works great in this recipe.

I keep frozen creamed spinach just for omlets. Also keep frozen Italian sausage individual links for the same purpose. Great quick dinner when I get home late.

I like the Kerry butter but it needs to be on the baguette or pastry instead of in the pan. That's wasting it.

I preferred soft scrambled and just had a small spring onion from my garden chopped and sautéed in butter on low heat, three yard eggs whisked well with fresh thyme added along with a couple of pieces of chopped cold smoked salmon, cook over low stirring all the time when almost ready remove from heat and stir in a small dollop of creme fraiche, return to heat and stir until done, add fresh chopped tomatos and plate.

Nice sea salt and cracked pepper. I eat this at least 4 times a week in some form or another.

bill, I'm glad you have the time, sounds very good..But, my omelets are consumed, bathroomed, and driving down the road before you probably get your keiska skinned.

Doesn't take as long as y'all probably think. Including prep and cook time 15-20 minutes max.

how could it take you five minutes to cook your omelet, when it takes the entire omelet-making world twenty minutes?

Are we to believe that heat soaks into an egg faster in your kitchen than on any place on the face of the earth?

Perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist on your stove. Are these magic eggs? I mean, did you buy them from the same guy who sold Jack his beanstalk beans?
