Ham and Cheese Omelette with Oomph

Posted on April 24, 2006 by adam
Category: Breakfast

With the addition of the 8" omelette pan to my kitchen apparel, making an omelette is a quick thing to do, so I like to make them when I need a nice protein-filled meal that I can make in a hurry. Today, I made a basic ham and cheese omelette with a little extra something to give it some oomph. The oomph is, of course, totally optional. I love to make omelettes after a ham holiday. Lots of leftoves that need to get in my belly.

Ingredients
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup chopped ham
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
- 1/3 cup grated cheese
- 1 TBSP butter
- 1 Tsp olive oil

Mise up:

1. In a small, nonstick skillet, heat the butter and oil over medium heat.
2. Add the peppers and ham, fry for 1 minute
3. Add the beaten egg. Swirl the pan around a bit while the egg sets up. Don't disturb it.
4. When the egg in the center of the pan is almost set, sprinkle the cheese evenly on the omelette. Slide a plastic spatula under one side and fold to the middle.
5. Repeat step 4 for the other side. Let the two folded halves fuse together for a few seconds.
6. Flip the whole thing over. I like to do a flip of the pan ... just to show off. Continue to cook for another 30 seconds.
