Chard And Onion Omelet Trouchia Food

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.

SWISS CHARD OMELETTE

Steps:

• Heat a medium-size pot with water and bring it to boil. In the meantime, wash swiss chard and slice the leaves and white stems (1-2 cm pieces). Add to boiling water and cook for 10 minutes.
• While the chard is cooking, heat oil in a medium-size pan. Chop the onion and garlic. Add them to the pan and cook over medium heat for 10 mins. Add salt and pepper.
• When the chard is ready, drain it in a colander in the sink and add then it to the pan. Toss with the onion and garlic for 2 minutes.
• Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork. Add chard-onion mixture into the eggs, mix them.
• Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in the medium size pan. When it is hot add the egg mixture. Keep heat at medium-low (I like a juicy omelette) for about 8 minutes. Invert the omelette on a large plate and slide back into the pan and cook a few more minutes, until the eggs are set. Time will depend if you like it more or less cooked.
• Slide on to a plate and serve.

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.

• Whisk eggs, 1/4 cup cheese, salt and pepper in medium bowl to blend. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in same skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of egg mixture and cook until eggs are just set in center, tilting pan and lifting edge of omelet with spatula to let uncooked portion flow underneath, about 2 minutes. 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.
