Scrambled Omelette Toast Topper Recipes

OMELET-IN-A-HOLE 3 WAYS

Steps:

• For the toast and eggs: Neatly remove the centers of the bread slices, leaving a 1/2-inch rim inside the crust (reserve the bread centers for another use). Lightly beat the eggs in a medium bowl with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper.
• Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• For the Denver omelet: Add the ham and bell pepper to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the ham is slightly browned and the pepper is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Reduce the heat to low. Fit the bread crusts into the skillet. While holding down the bread to create a seal and barrier, pour about a quarter of the egg mixture into the center of each crust. Split the ham and vegetable mixture between the crusts. Top each with 1/4 cup cheese, then top with the remaining egg mixture. Cover with a lid or foil and cook for 5 minutes. Flip the toasts and cook until the egg is set, another 3 minutes. Transfer each to a separate plate cheese-side up and sprinkle with the chives.
• For the spinach omelet: Add the spinach and red bell pepper to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted and the bell pepper is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Reduce the heat to low. Fit the bread crusts into the skillet. While holding down the bread to create a seal and barrier, pour about a quarter of the egg mixture into the center of each crust. Split the spinach mixture between the crusts. Top each with 1/4 cup cheese, then top with the remaining egg mixture. Cook as above, then garnish with the basil instead of the chives.
• For the sausage and mushroom omelet: Add the mushrooms and sausage to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is completely browned and the mushrooms are softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Reduce the heat to low. Fit the bread crusts into the skillet. While holding down the bread to create a seal and barrier, pour about a quarter of the egg mixture into the center of each crust. Split the sausage mixture between the crusts. Top each with 1/4 cup cheese, then top with the remaining egg mixture. Cook as above, then garnish with the parsley instead of the chives.

Pour into skillet,; cook over medium heat. As the eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When eggs are set, top with spinach, cheese slices and tortilla., Invert pan to flip omelet; return omelet to pan, tortilla side down. Place ham and sauteed vegetables on one side of omelet.

SCRAMBLED EGG OMELET

Steps:

• Combine eggs, salt, cayenne, parsley, marjoram, thyme, and white Cheddar cheese in a small bowl and beat with a fork until combined.
• Heat oil in a small, nonstick pan over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the hot pan and use a rubber spatula to begin scrambling the eggs, moving constantly and scraping the sides of the pan as needed. Reduce heat to low when eggs start to come together. Continue cooking, stirring slowly but constantly, until you have achieved very wet, soft scrambled eggs. Turn off the heat.
• Tilt the pan toward you and push all the eggs together at the bottom edge of the pan. Go around the edges with your spatula, tucking in and smoothing out the edges, as you form the eggs into an omelet that is no longer wet, but still moist. The curve of the pan will help the shaping.
• Turn the heat back to medium to help form a skin on the surface of the omelet, about 15 seconds. Remove from heat and carefully flop over onto a warm plate. Serve immediately.
