Garlic Mushroom Omelette: A Hearty Breakfast Delight Packed with Flavor and Protein
The Garlic Mushroom Omelette is a delicious and healthy breakfast option that combines the rich and earthy flavors of mushrooms with the aromatic pungency of garlic. This dish is not only quick and easy to make but also packed with protein, making it a perfect start to your day. It can be enjoyed on its own or with a side of toast and a fresh salad.
Ingredients:
4 large eggs
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons milk
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ingredients: Clean and slice the mushrooms. Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley.
2. Sauté the Mushrooms and Garlic: Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are golden brown and soft, about 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove the mushrooms and garlic from the skillet and set them aside.
3. Beat the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.
4. Cook the Omelette: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly spray or brush it with oil if necessary. Pour in the egg mixture, tilting the skillet to ensure even cooking. Let it cook undisturbed for a minute until it begins to set around the edges.
5. Add the Filling: Once the omelette starts to set but is still slightly runny in the middle, evenly distribute the sautéed mushrooms and garlic over one half of the omelette. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
6. Fold the Omelette: Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Let it cook for another minute or two until the eggs are fully set and the cheese (if using) is melted.
7. Serve: Slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and additional Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve immediately.
Enjoy your flavorful and nutritious Garlic Mushroom Omelette!
