omlette

There should be a law protecting the omlette. Milk, strawberries etc are against the gospel and I am sure the Koran has a view on it.

How do you make your omelette? I fry onions or mushrooms in butter then stir up half a dozen eggs lightly, chuck them in and when it just starts to set on the bottom sprinkle cheese on top and shove it under the grill.....mmmmmmmm... that's tea sorted then. :hungry::smile:

Im a chicken owner and scrambled egg has milk but omelette does not . My chickens told me that and they never lie . Actually they never do anything apart from lay eggs , eat and shoot .
anyway , omelette ... I heat butter in a pan and beat 3 eggs with a fork until the butter has melted and then pour the eggs into the pan pushing the mix into the middle so the runny bits get cooked . Once its firm I flip it like a pancake and add shredded ham and grated cheese to half of the cooked side . I then fold the omelette in half over the ham and cheese and let the mix and cheese seal it into a pocket . Maybe turn a few times to get the cheese melting if needed . :hungry:

What's the latest word on eggs? I seem to remember thst when i was a kid they were considered some sort of superfood of the gods*** but then the rumbings began about being careful. How many a week is considered OK?

*** I do also though remember the curious phrase "egg bound" but that was maybe zn odd lancashire malady - have never hesrd of the peril since.

Omelette becomes scrambled egg when it is stuck to the pan and you(ie me) cockup freeing it......no milk in either...no pepper/salt or anything....if you want a quiche minus the crust then do that, stop spoiling the pure nature of a simple food for simple folk(ie me).
Protein powder in this mix...:wacko:

They went out of favour for a while with claims that they raised cholesterol, but recently they seem to have decided they don't - a bit like everything else they warn you off

Definitely remember my mother / grandmother warning about getting egg bound though - but that was always with hard boiled eggs rather than fried / scrambled so no idea if there was any truth in it.

Ah thanks for confirming the egg bound memory :smile:
