Step by step how to cook Fluffy Cheese and Mushroom Omelette:
- Place pan on stove over a medium head. Add in oil and heat slightly. Then add in onions and garlic. Saute until onions soften and become translucent..
- Mix in sliced mushrooms and cook through until all liquid evaporates then season with salt to taste and brown mushrooms slightly..
- Remove mushrooms from pan and set aside..
- Add butter and dash of olive oil to pan and reduce heat slightly. NB. You want to cook the omelette slowly so that it cooks all the way through with a lid on without burning the bottom..
- Separate yolks from egg whites and season both with salt and pepper..
- Whip egg whites to form soft peaks.
- In a separate bowl whip egg yolks until they become pale, light and fluffy.
- Fold yolks into whipped egg whites.
- Add egg mixture into heated pan with butter, cover with lid and allow to cook through..
- NB. I suggest a glass lid so you can see once it cooks through. Also note that the mix mix will rise but deflate a bit as soon as you remove the lid..
- For the filling; top egg with some of the cheese followed by a layer of mushroom, a bit more of the cheese then add the sliced jalapenos, add the final layer of cheese and top with the sliced spring onion..
- Cover and leave until cheese starts melting then remove lid and gently fold over..
- You can serve with a dollop of sour cream and crispy bacon bits or as is. Enjoy!.
