Goat’s cheese and grilled pepper omelette
Background
For a quick midweek lunch or weekend brunch an omelette is one of the easiest meal to create. This Goat’s cheese and grilled pepper omelette was made with leftover BBQ bell pepper from the night before. You can use jarred roasted pepper, if you like – but do make sure that a balsamic vinegar is good quality, the cheap ones are too acidic and not suitable for this recipe. Serve the omelette with a salad and/or crusty bread.
Ingredients
- 3 medium eggs
- ½ red roasted/grilled pepper
- ⅓ log of soft Goat’s cheese (about 2 Tbsp)
- 2 spring onions
- Handful of basil leaves
Instructions
- Lightly whisk the eggs.
- Thinly slice the roasted pepper and spring onions then toss with the balsamic vinegar.
- Heat a knob of butter in a frying pan. Add the eggs, letting the mixture spread out.
- When it’s half cooked through, crumble the cheese all over, then arrange the spring onion and pepper slices on top.
- Cover with a lid, turn off the heat, then gently steam for about 5 minutes, or until the top of the omelette has just set.
- Scatter the herbs on top and fold the omelette in half. Cook for a few seconds, then slide it to a plate.
- Serve warm.
