Chef Flower's Simple Sunday Brunch Omelette

Submitted by Chef floWer

"This is one of my creations. I cook this when we have guests staying over on the weekend. A bit like Sunday Brunch were everyone wakes up as they please. I don’t eat eggs or bacon but friends who I’ve cook this for once ask for it each time they stay over. The secret in a good omelette is the pan, one with non-sick. I use a 25 cm pancake pan, it’s made by Tefal and the brand is called Integral. If you run out looking for this pan then look at special catering companies. It's really hard to find."

I pretty much followed Peter's review suggestions since there were only 2 of us &, along with a small smoothie, this made for A VERY TASTY & FILLING BREAKFAST! I'm not much for the mint but did include it here & will admit that it's addition was . . . interesting! Thanks for sharing your recipe!

What a easy and delicious omelet. I cut the recipe in half used 6 eggs to feed 3 of us. I used red onions instead of Spanish onion, I also skipped the mint cuz my daughter just wouldn't let me add it. :D Delicious!
