Swiss Chard Sun Dried Tomato And Feta French Style Omelet Recipes

MIA KOUPPA: OMELETTE WITH FETA AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Prepare your sun-dried tomatoes by blotting them on a paper towel in order to remove the excess oil. Using kitchen shears, snip them into small strips. Set aside.In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, dill and milk. Whisk well until very well combined.In a non-stick skillet, over medium heat, melt the butter or margarine. Pour in the eggs and tilt the pan so that the entire bottom surface of the pan is covered with the egg.As the outer edges of your egg begin to cook, gently push them towards the center of your pan. Then, tilt your pan to allow the uncooked portions of egg to reach the hot pan surface. Continue cooking, tilting your pan and gently moving cooked portions of egg, until you have no visible liquid egg left on the surface of your omelette.Remembering that you will fold your omelette in half to create a half moon shape, sprinkle on one end of your egg the feta, the sun-dried tomatoes and the green onions. Take a deep breath and flip your omelette over to cover filling. Cook for a minute more; this will help the cheese get soft and melt slightly.Slide gently off of pan into a plate. Enjoy with some fresh tomato slices, fruit or bread. Enjoy!

EASY CHARD WITH FETA AND CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Cut off the thick stems of chard and disregard. Roughly chop chard leaves and wash. Place wet chard into a pot, cover, and cook over medium heat until chard has wilted, about 5 minutes.

CHARD AND ONION OMELET (TROUCHIA)

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a 10-inch skillet, add the onion, and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until completely soft but not colored, about 15 minutes. Add the chard and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until all the moisture has cooked off and the chard is tender, about 15 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, mash the garlic in a mortar with a few pinches of salt (or chop them finely together), then stir it into the eggs along with the herbs. Combine the chard mixture with the eggs and stir in the Gruyère and half the Parmesan.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat the remaining oil in the skillet and, when it's hot, add the eggs. Give a stir and keep the heat at medium-high for about a minute, then turn it to low. Cook until the eggs are set but still a little moist on top, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the remaining Parmesan and broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat, until browned.
• Serve trouchia in the pan or slide it onto a serving dish and cut it into wedges. The gratinéed top and the golden bottom are equally presentable.

Scatter half of chard mixture over half of omelet. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese over chard. Fold omelet over cheese; slide out onto plate. Repeat with remaining butter, egg mixture, chard and cheese.

SWISS CHARD OMELETTE DINNER

Steps:

• In skillet, heat oil and garlic on medium heat.
• Add chopped chard. I use both the stalks and the leaves. Stalks when cooked taste something like celery. Leaves taste a lot like spinach.
• Chop and add remaining ingredients in order: onion, zucchini, mushrooms.
• Cover for just a couple minutes. When you start to see the mushrooms show signs of cooking, check the chard. When leaves are just wilted, put veggies on a plate.
• Return skillet to burner. Scramble egg and cheese together. I also add a little pepper.
• Place egg on top of veggies and serve immediately.
