Leek and Sage Cheese Omelette
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius on grill setting
Cook leek:
- Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a small pan and add in the sliced leeks and salt
- Cook on med-low heat until they are soft and fragrant, set aside.
Cook eggs:
- In the same pan, heat the remaining oil
- Whisk the eggs together with the sour cream and a good hit of black pepper
- Pour the egg mix into the heated pan, try not to disturb it until it begins to cook across the bottom of the pan
- At this point, take your spatula and pull the outside of the egg into the centre of the pan - allowing the uncooked egg to spill over into the space you have created
- Turn the pan repeating the process 2-3 times
- Then leave it to cook for 1 minute further and then turn off the heat
Add toppings and grill:
- Top the Omelette with the cooked leeks and 3 slices of the sage cheese
- Transfer the pan to oven and grill until the cheese is melted
- Slide the spatula under the omelette loosening it from the bottom of the pan and slide it out onto your plate
- This part doesn’t always go as planned, but I promise it will taste great even if it doesn’t look perfect! And practice makes perfect! Enjoy!
