Arabic Omelet ("ijee") Middle East, Palestine
"This is great to make for suhr! It's a little different than the traditional omelet that most are used to, but it does make a great dish to eat for suhr during ramadan!
Ramadan Kareem!"

I had this for breakfast on a saturday morning with fresh veggies, hummus and algerian farina rolls #309705. I scrambled the eggs just because i prefer it personally. Made for Ramadan Tag Game 2009. -
Delicious eggs I liked it with the mint. Gave it that middle eastern flair. Made for Ramadan Tag 2008. :) -
Oh yeah, this was delicious!!! I used all 6 eggs in my 12" cast iron skillet to make 1 large omelet. Then ate the whole thing. I used dry mint & couldn't really taste it - I'll bet fresh would be MUCH better (or try more than 1tsp dry). Made for Ramadan Tag. -
This was delicious and easy to make! I served the omelet with leftover Persian steamed rice and fresh fruit. Fresh mint from our garden! Made for Come With Us to Palestine/April. -
4 1/2 stars. DD (toddler) loves it. It is fresh tasting, with the fresh herbs including mint. As the introduction says it is a bit different than typical omelets and I had to take a bit of stars off because it wasn't my favorite. I used, sweet butter (unsalted), sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Each omelette fit perfectly into my small frying pan and looked perfect.

I am 22 years old, married, and have a beautiful daughter named Layla. I was born and raised in Ohio, but now live in the Virgin Islands. My family is from Palestine, and I have visited over the summers many, many times. I loveeee food from Palestine, so I've decided to share some of my favorite recipes with you. I hope you like!
