BACON, SPINACH, AND BRIE OMELET

Steps:

• In a 10-inch skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, or until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. When cool, chop coarsely and set aside. Pour out the fat, leaving just a thin film in the bottom of the hot skillet. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, for about 45 seconds, or until wilted. Using tongs, transfer the spinach to a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and a grinding of pepper to the spinach. Place the Brie in a separate small bowl. Break the eggs into a medium bowl and add the water. Stir with a flat whisk, spiral whisk, or a fork just until blended. Add a pinch of salt and a grinding of pepper. Heat a 7- or 8-inch omelet pan or skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute, or until hot. Add the butter and heat for 10 seconds, or until the butter foams and then begins to subside. Immediately pour the eggs into the center of the pan. They should sizzle on contact. Cook for about 10 seconds, or until the bottom is just set. Using a flat-edged rubber or silicone spatula, pull the set edges from the sides of the pan toward the center and tilt the pan to allow the unset egg to run toward the sides of the pan. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the eggs are soft set. Sprinkle the bacon on top of the eggs. Place the Brie slices down the center of the eggs. Use tongs or a fork to put the spinach on top of the cheese. Remove the pan from the heat. Using a flat-edged rubber or silicone spatula, turn the one-third of the omelet nearest the handle over the filling in the center. Holding the pan by the handle, tilt the pan. With the edge of the spatula guide the omelet as it rolls out onto a plate, forming a seam-side-down envelope. Serve at once.

SAUTEED SPINACH WITH BACON

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy, 5 to 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove bacon, leaving fat in skillet; drain on a paper towel. Set aside.
• Increase heat to high; fill skillet with as much spinach as will fit. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing spinach and adding more as it wilts (it may take up to 2 minutes to fit it all). Continue to cook until tender, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Tilt skillet to drain water from spinach (using slotted spoon or a spatula to hold spinach back). Mix in vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with crispy bacon.

SPINACH AND BRIE OMELET

Steps:

• Wash the spinach in plenty of cold water at least twice to get rid of any grit or sand. The easiest way is to swish it around in a bowlful of cold water and lift it out. If there's grit in the bottom of the bowl, change the water and repeat the process. You can leave on the stems if you're using baby spinach. Otherwise, tear off the stems at the base of the large, crinkly leaves and discard.
• Steam the spinach by tossing it with a little water in a skillet over high heat. Alternatively, microwave it for 1 minute.
• Cool the spinach by running it under cold water, and drain it well in a colander. Give it a couple of good squeezes with your hands to get rid of as much liquid as possible. Using a sharp knife, roughly chop the spinach into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Using a whisk or a fork, beat the eggs with some salt and pepper in a small bowl until frothy.
• Heat the butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/3 cup of the spinach and sauté for 1 minute, or until very hot.
• Pour the eggs into the pan, tilting the pan to evenly distribute the eggs over the spinach. Let the eggs cook and set for about 5 seconds.
• Using a silicone or rubber spatula, gently pull the cooked egg from the edges toward the center of the pan, while allowing the liquid egg to run underneath and onto the hot pan. After about 30 seconds, or when the eggs look cooked but are still moist, arrange the Brie slices on half of the omelet. The cheese is soft and will melt quickly.
• Using the spatula, fold the omelet in half. Cook the omelet for another 10 seconds. Slide the omelet from the pan onto a serving plate.

BRIE & BACON TOASTIES

Steps:

• Set the grill on high and put a sheet of foil under the grill rack to catch any cooking juices and save on washing up later. Lay the bacon on the rack and grill for 2 minutes. While it is grilling, slice the cheese (aim to get about 8 long slices) and core and slice the pear.
• Put the slices of bread under the grill as well for just under a minute until the bread is evenly toasted on one side only. Keep an eye on it - a whole minute is just that little bit too long and the bread may start to char.
• Flick the bread over and cover the untoasted sides first with a layer of pear slices, then the grilled bacon and then the rest of the pear slices. Don't worry if it looks a little rough and ready - it all adds to the effect. Drape the brie on top and scatter over the pecans, roughly breaking them with your fingers as you go.
• Grill for another minute or so, until the cheese is melted and oozy. Remove and eat straight away with the rocket or watercress on the side.

BACON & BRIE OMELETTE WEDGES WITH SUMMER SALAD

Steps:

• Turn on the grill and heat 1 tsp of the oil in a small pan. Add the lardons and fry until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper.
• Heat 2 tsp of the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Mix together the eggs, lardons, chives and some ground black pepper. Pour into the frying pan and cook over a low heat until semi-set, then lay the brie on top. Grill until set and golden. Remove from the pan and cut into wedges just before serving.
• Meanwhile, mix the remaining olive oil, vinegar, mustard and seasoning in a bowl. Toss in the cucumber and radishes, and serve alongside the omelette wedges.
