INDIAN OMELET



Indian Omelet image

I don't know why it is, but I am not a fan of American-style omelets. I love eggs scrambled, coddled, poached, soft and hard boiled . . . but there's something about that thick carpet of egg in omelets that just doesn't sit right with me! Perhaps it's because this is the first omelet I ever had- thin (but not as thin as a crepe-like French omelet) and packed with fresh flavors. It's the kind of thing I whip up at almost any hour of the day (it's really great after you've been out and had one drink too many!). To this day, Mum will make this as a light lunch when she doesn't feel like cooking anything too strenuous. The potato chips are my American touch to this Indian standby.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs
3/4 cup minced red onion (about 1/2 medium onion)
1 small serrano chile, seeded and minced
Small handful fresh cilantro, minced (about 2 tablespoons), plus extra leaves for garnish
3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
3/4 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly
ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable, canola or grapeseed oil
Small handful coarsely crushed potato chips (about 1/4 cup; optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs until slightly frothy. (If you are not in a hurry, you can go the extra mile: Separate the eggs and beat the egg yolks in one bowl, the egg whites in another, until very frothy. Gently fold the yolks into the whites. This will make a much lighter omelet!)
  • Carefully stir in the onion, chile, cilantro, turmeric and paprika and add couple of generous pinches of salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a medium (10 to 12 inch) non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Keep a heatproof spoonula (a curved, spoonlike spatula) at the ready. When the oil starts to shimmer, pour in the egg mixture.
  • Using your spoonula, stir the egg mixture in small circular motions to distribute the onions, chile and cilantro evenly around the pan. This also helps move some of the uncooked egg down to the surface of the hot pan. Sprinkle the potato chips (if using) evenly over the top.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pan, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Meanwhile, grab a plate that's as big as your pan.
  • Check your omelet. It's all right if it's not fully cooked, but it shouldn't be super-runny. If it is, cover the pan and cook for 1 minute more. Slide the omelet, cooked side down, onto the plate. Then, holding the plate from underneath, place your pan over the plate and flip the omelet back into the pan. The omelet should land with its uncooked side down. Cook, uncovered, for another minute.
  • Slide the omelet onto a serving plate, cut it into 4 wedges and serve with fresh cilantro leaves on top!
  • Smaarti Tip
  • Don't omit the serrano chile even if you don't like spicy foods. Scrape out the seeds and use just the flesh; that slight bitterness really makes this omelet sing.

MONTE CRISTO OMELET SANDWICH



Monte Cristo Omelet Sandwich image

If you are a fan of Monte Cristos, you'll love this riff on the popular Indian street food egg sandwich. It's every bit as crisp on the outside, ooey-gooey on the inside and dusted all over with confectioners' sugar. A square-shaped bread is ideal: It enables neater folding of the omelet. You will also want to use a nonstick skillet that is at least ten inches in diameter -- the omelet won't fit in a smaller pan.

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 large eggs
Kosher salt
2 slices Swiss cheese
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 slices sourdough or white bread
2 large slices ham

Steps:

  • Add the eggs, 1 tablespoon water and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Spread each cheese slice with 1/4 teaspoon of the Dijon and set the slices mustard-side-up on a flat surface. Put the confectioners' sugar in a small fine-mesh sieve set over a plate.
  • Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until melted and starting to brown around the edges of the pan. Add the egg mixture and swirl the pan to coat the bottom. Working quickly, dip 1 slice of the bread in the eggs, then flip the slice and place it so the top edge of the slice is near the edge of the pan furthest from you. Repeat with the remaining slice of bread, setting it across the pan from the first bread slice. The bottom edges of the two slices should be in a straight line, with eggs all around.
  • Continue to cook the eggs until they are completely set on the bottom and mostly cooked on the top, 1 to 2 minutes more. Slide a large nonstick spatula under the bread and flip the whole omelet in one single motion. Set the cheese mustard-side up on top of the omelet, covering the bread. Lay the ham on top of one of the slices of cheese. Using the spatula, fold one side of the omelet (but not the bread side) over the cheese and ham, then fold over the other side. Fold in half so the bread slices meet and form a sandwich.
  • Cook until the bread on the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is beginning to melt, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce the heat if the bread begins to darken too quickly before the cheese melts. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Set the sandwich on a plate and dust with the confectioners' sugar.

INDIAN OMELET



Indian Omelet image

Provided by Aarti Sequeira

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 eggs
3/4 cup finely minced red onion
1 serrano chile, minced, seeds removed if you don't want it spicy
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro leaves
3/4 teaspoon turmeric
3/4 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoon canola oil

Steps:

  • I thought that this was the only way to make an omelet until I had the French and American kinds. It's funny; we like ours thin and lightly browned, whereas the classic American version is fluffy and pale yellow. This almost reminds me of a Spanish frittata; you can eat a quarter of it with a small salad and it makes a satisfying light lunch. My mum usually makes this for lunch when she's got a heavy dinner planned. It's one of my dad's favorites! This is also apparently one of those things that you can get at the train stations in India: jump onto the platform, grab a hot "railway omelet" and speed walk to work where you can nosh away in peace. Bliss!
  • Grab a bowl. Crack the eggs into the bowl and beat until lathery, about 1 minute. Whisk in the onion, chile, cilantro, turmeric, and paprika until well combined. Sprinkle with a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
  • Grab a 12-inch nonstick skillet. Add the oil and warm over medium-high heat until mildly shimmering but not smoking. Have a spatula/spoonula at the ready. Pour egg mixture into the pan. Grab the spatula/spoonula and, in small circular motions, distribute the onions, chile, and cilantro evenly around the pan. This also helps move some of the uncooked egg down to the surface of the hot pan. Cover and cook for 2 1/2 minutes.
  • Grab a plate that's as big as your pan. Pull off the lid and look at your omelet. It might still look a little runny, but it shouldn't be super runny. If it is, then cover and cook 1 more minute. Slide the omelet, cooked side down, onto your plate. Then, holding the plate from underneath, put your pan over your plate, and flip so that the uncooked side lands on the pan. Cook, uncovered, another minute.
  • Slide onto serving plate, cut into 4, and serve.

INDIAN BREAD OMELET



Indian Bread Omelet image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 large eggs, beaten
Splash whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon canned green chiles, optional
1 tablespoon jarred diced pimientos, optional
2 slices regular white bread
2 slices pepper jack cheese, optional
Ketchup or spicy mustard, for serving, as desired

Steps:

  • Place a large (about 12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium heat, then add the butter and allow it to melt. Meanwhile, mix the eggs, milk, a pinch of salt and pepper, plus the green chiles and pimientos, if using, in a small pitcher. Pour into the skillet. Add the bread to the eggs, quickly coating the first side of the bread in the eggs (as you would French toast), then turn it over, placing it back in the eggs.
  • Allow the eggs to almost set completely, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the whole omelet over in one motion. Top each piece of bread with the cheese, if using. Fold the side edges of the omelet over the bread, then flip one piece of the bread onto the other, creating a sandwich. Allow the bottom of the sandwich to become toasted and golden, about a minute, then flip the sandwich over and cook until the other side is nice and golden, an additional minute.
  • Remove from the skillet and cut in half. Serve with ketchup or spicy mustard if desired.
