Spring Vegetable Omelette recipe
information
Spring greens, or unhearted young cabbages, can usually be found in the shops all year round, despite their name. They need only light cooking and should keep a bit of crunch.
ingredients
225 g (8 oz) spring greens, prepared and finely shredded
1 medium onion, skinned and thinly sliced
salt and pepper
15 g (1/2 oz) butter
3 tomatoes, cut into eighths
100 g (4 oz) frozen sweetcorn kernels
3 eggs
1 medium onion, skinned and thinly sliced
salt and pepper
15 g (1/2 oz) butter
3 tomatoes, cut into eighths
100 g (4 oz) frozen sweetcorn kernels
3 eggs
method
1. Blanch the spring greens and onion in boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Drain well.
2. Put in a 20.5 cm (8 inch) dry omelette pan and cook, stirring, over a medium heat for 3 - 5 minutes, to evaporate excess moisture.
3. Add the butter and fry for about 8 minutes, until the greens are just tender.
4. Add the tomatoes to the pan with the sweetcorn and cook, stirring, for a further 3 minutes. Season.
5. Lightly whisk the eggs with seasoning, then pour over the vegetables. Cook for about 5 minutes or until just set, stirring once or twice to allow the egg mixture to run through the vegetables.
6. Flash under the grill until the surface begins to brown. Cut in half and serve at once.
