# Spinach Omelette
|
||||
|
||||
A perfectly creamy spinach omelette with professional-level techniques for exceptional results.
|
||||
|
||||
## Ingredients
|
||||
|
||||
### For the Spinach
|
||||
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach
|
||||
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
|
||||
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
|
||||
- Salt to taste
|
||||
|
||||
### For the Omelette
|
||||
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
|
||||
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream or whole milk
|
||||
- 1 tablespoon clarified butter (or 1/2 tablespoon each butter and olive oil)
|
||||
- Salt and white pepper to taste
|
||||
- Optional: 2 tablespoons gruyere or goat cheese, crumbled
|
||||
|
||||
## Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
### Prepare the Spinach
|
||||
1. Heat olive oil in a small pan over medium heat
|
||||
2. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant
|
||||
3. Add spinach and a pinch of salt, cook until just wilted (1-2 minutes)
|
||||
4. Transfer to paper towels and gently squeeze out excess moisture
|
||||
5. Set aside and keep warm
|
||||
|
||||
### Make the Omelette
|
||||
1. In a bowl, gently beat eggs with cream until just combined (do not overbeat)
|
||||
2. Season with a pinch of salt and white pepper
|
||||
3. Heat a 9-inch non-stick pan over medium heat
|
||||
4. Add clarified butter (or butter-oil mixture) and swirl to coat
|
||||
5. Once butter is hot but not browning, pour in egg mixture
|
||||
6. As eggs begin to set, use a rubber spatula to gently push cooked edges toward center, tilting pan to allow raw egg to flow to edges
|
||||
7. When eggs are about 80% set but still slightly wet on top (about 2 minutes), let sit for 30 seconds
|
||||
8. Add prepared spinach to one half of the omelette
|
||||
9. If using cheese, sprinkle it over the spinach
|
||||
10. Using your spatula, fold the empty half over the filling
|
||||
11. Cook for another 30 seconds until cheese begins to melt
|
||||
|
||||
### Serving
|
||||
- Slide omelette onto a warm plate using the spatula
|
||||
- Serve immediately while the eggs are still creamy
|
||||
|
||||
## Chef's Notes
|
||||
- Room temperature eggs create a fluffier omelette
|
||||
- Don't salt eggs until just before cooking to prevent them from becoming watery
|
||||
- The omelette should be light golden on the outside and creamy (but fully cooked) on the inside
|
||||
- If the pan is properly heated, the eggs should start setting around the edges within 10 seconds of being poured
|
||||
|
||||

- Prep Time: 10 minutes
|
||||
- Cook Time: 5 minutes
|
||||
