Turmeric omelette and things I like this week
Egg is one of those ingredients that is on my list of intolerances (dammit). However I find that as long as I don’t overdo the oeufs, occasionally I can tolerate them. A recipe that shows them right off in their freshest state is just the ticket, just like this turmeric omelette.
On a creative note, I’ve been waiting to use this deep blue denim fabric as a background to a yellow dish and this was the ideal opportunity.
Ingredients:
3 very fresh eggs (in fact I cycled to the farm down the road to get these (smug).
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
Good pinch sea salt
Very good grinding of black pepper
Butter
Method:
1. Either use a heavy cast iron frying pan or a non stick one (I prefer the cast iron one as it gets searing hot and perfect for making the egg and butter sugars turn crispy). Whisk the eggs, turmeric and salt in a bowl and meanwhile fry the butter until sizzling. As soon as it does, coat the bottom of the pan all over with the butter, then immediately add your egg mixture.
2. When the egg starts to cook on the bottom, move some of the omelette mixture to the centre and let the uncooked egg coat the bottom of the pan again. Before the egg is completely cooked, remove from the heat, flip over and set on a serving plate. The residual heat from the bottom will cook the omelette mixture through, though it all depends if you like your egg runny in the middle or not!
