Instructions :

1Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
2Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs.
3Whisk the egg mixture thoroughly until well combined and slightly frothy.
4Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
5Add the olive oil to the skillet and allow it to warm up.
6Once the oil is hot, add the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion to the skillet.
7Sauté the vegetables for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
8Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped spinach leaves to the skillet.
9Continue to sauté for another 2 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the spinach is wilted.
10Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet.
11Gently shake the skillet to evenly distribute the eggs and vegetables.
12Cook the omelet without stirring for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
13Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelet, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
14Once the base is mostly cooked but the top is still slightly runny, sprinkle the halved cherry tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelet.
15Fold the omelet in half using a spatula, covering the side with the tomatoes and cheese.
16Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked through.
17Carefully slide the omelet onto a serving plate.
18Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Notes :

  • Use fresh vegetables for the best flavor and texture.
  • You can substitute almond milk or any other milk alternative for regular milk if desired.
  • Preheat the skillet to ensure even cooking of the vegetables and eggs.
  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the omelet from sticking and to make it easier to fold.
  • Olive oil can be substituted with butter or a cooking spray for different flavors or dietary preferences.
  • Dice vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of salt and pepper according to personal taste.
  • Whisking the eggs thoroughly will introduce air, making the omelet fluffier.
  • Cook vegetables until just tender to retain some crunch and nutrients.
  • Be careful not to overcook the vegetables as they will continue to cook with the eggs.
  • If the edges of the omelet are cooking too quickly, reduce the heat slightly to avoid burning.
  • Use a flexible spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelet for even cooking.
  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of red chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture.
  • Add herbs like basil or thyme for additional flavor variations.
  • Use freshly grated cheese for better melting and flavor compared to pre-shredded cheese.
  • Allow the cheese to melt slightly before folding the omelet to ensure it stays intact.
  • Serve the omelet immediately for the best taste and texture.
  • Garnishing with parsley adds a fresh, aromatic element to the dish.
  • Customize the omelet by adding or substituting other vegetables like zucchini or broccoli.
  • You can double the recipe to serve more people or to prepare a larger omelet.

Tips :

  • Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best flavor and texture.
  • Room temperature eggs will blend more easily with the milk.
  • Whisk the eggs vigorously to incorporate air, which will make the omelet fluffier.
  • Use whole milk for a creamier texture, or substitute with your preferred milk alternative.
  • Season the egg mixture to taste, adjusting salt and pepper if needed.
  • A non-stick skillet is essential to prevent sticking and make flipping the omelet easier.
  • Ensure the olive oil is hot before adding vegetables to sauté them evenly.
  • Dice vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking.
  • For added flavor, consider roasting the bell peppers before adding them to the skillet.
  • Sauté the vegetables until just softened to maintain some texture and color.
  • Add mushrooms and spinach last as they cook quickly and can release moisture.
  • Make sure the egg mixture covers the entire skillet for a consistent cook.
  • Use medium heat to avoid burning the bottom of the omelet.
  • Gently shake the skillet in a circular motion to distribute the egg mixture evenly.
  • Use a spatula to carefully lift the edges, which helps cook the omelet evenly.
  • Ensure the omelet is mostly set before adding tomatoes and cheese to prevent it from tearing.
  • For a richer flavor, use a sharp cheddar cheese or your favorite cheese blend.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes just before folding to keep them fresh and juicy.
  • Fold the omelet gently to avoid breaking it.
  • Allow the cheese to melt completely before removing from the skillet.
  • Use a wide spatula to slide the omelet onto the plate smoothly.
  • Garnish with parsley for a fresh, herbaceous finish.
  • Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
