• Place in moderate oven, 350 degrees and bake about 10 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
• Loosen omelet from pan. Cut across center. Fold omelet and turn out onto serving platter.
• Sprinkle top with sugar mixed with lemon peel. Slip under broiler for a few seconds until sugar melts and browns slightly. Pour some of the blueberry sauce over omelet.

EGG WHITE OMELET WITH BLUEBERRIES AND CREME FRAICHE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites until they are foamy. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and whisk again to blend.
• Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is warm, pour in the egg whites. As the eggs set, lift the edges with a heat proof spatula and let the uncooked egg run to the bottom of the pan. When the omelet is cooked through, top with the blueberries. Slide the omelet onto a plate, top with the creme fraiche, and garnish with dill.

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
