Ingredients (serves 1)
- Egg (2 pcs)110 g
- Bell pepper60 g
- Spinach30 g
- Olive oil5 g
- Rye bread (1 slice)35 g
Also: Salt, pepper
Method
- Get ready: wash the pepper, remove the seeds and cut it into thin strips. Wash and pat dry the spinach.
- In a small bowl, whisk 2 eggs with a fork and add a pinch of pepper. Don't add salt yet.
- Heat 1 tsp olive oil (5 g) in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the pepper for 2–3 min until it softens a little.
- Add the spinach and fry, stirring, for about 1 min over medium heat until it wilts.
- Season the eggs lightly with salt and pour them over the vegetables. Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat for 3–4 min, until the eggs are fully set and there's no runny egg left on top.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate and eat with 1 slice of rye bread (35 g).
Tips
- Cook over medium heat with the lid on – the omelette will rise and won't burn.
- Any leftover vegetables will do: courgette, tomato, spring onions.
- Salt the whisked eggs only just before cooking – the omelette will be softer.
- Want it hotter? A pinch of chilli flakes or a teaspoon of hot paprika in the eggs.
- Want it lighter? Instead of 2 eggs – 1 egg and 2 egg whites.
