Omelette With Herbs


A great way to use garden herbs. This is adaptable to whatever herbs you have in your garden. When i made it mostly chives and tarragon because that is what i had the most of, but i think this will be good with oregano or other fresh herbs too. The original recipe didn't use any cheese, but i added two slices of deli swiss cheese (about 1/4 cup). Recipe source: bon appetit (bon appetit 1991)

Steps


In a medium bowl whisk eggs and water together and then season with salt and pepper.
Stir in herbs.
In a skillet , melt the butter over medium high heat and add the egg mixture to pan.
If using cheese , add cheese on top of eggs.
Let eggs set around edges and then lift edges and tilt pan , so uncooked eggs will go under the cooked eggs.
Cook until eggs are almost set and then using a spatula , roll 1 / 3 of omlet to center.
Tilt pan and slide omlet onto plate.
Garnish with chives , if desired.
