SPINACH MUSHROOM OMELET

Steps:

• Beat egg and egg whites in a small bowl. Mix in Parmesan cheese, Cheddar cheese, salt, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, nutmeg, and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms, green onion, and bell pepper until tender, about 5 minutes. Place spinach in skillet and cook until just wilted.

SPANISH SPINACH OMELETTE

Steps:

• Tip the spinach into a large colander and bring a kettleful of water to the boil. Slowly pour the water over the spinach until wilted, then cool under cold water. Squeeze all the liquid out of the spinach and set aside.
• Heat grill to high. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and gently cook the onion and potato for about 10 mins until the potato is soft. While the onion is cooking, beat the eggs together in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Stir the spinach into the potatoes, then pour in the eggs and cook, stirring occasionally, until nearly set, then flash the omelette under the grill to set the top. Ease the omelette on to a plate, then flip over back into the pan. Finish cooking the omelette on the underside and turn out onto a board. Serve cut into wedges.

SPINACH-NETTLE OMELET WITH ONION SOUBISE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss bread with 2 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt. Spread onto a baking sheet, and bake until golden brown and crisp, about 15 minutes. Let croutons cool completely. Crush into coarse crumbs using a rolling pin.
• Melt butter in a small skillet over low heat. Cook onion, stirring often, until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add heavy cream. Continue cooking until onion is soft and cream reduces by half, about 45 minutes. (This is called a soubise.) Add cheese, and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add greens. Remove from heat. Stir and toss greens as they continue cooking until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from skillet, and coarsely chop greens. Season with salt and pepper.
• Combine 3/4 cup breadcrumbs, the chopped greens, and egg. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in an 8-inch skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add egg mixture, and distribute evenly in skillet. Cook until edges are crisp, about 6 minutes. Fold omelet in half, and cook for 2 minutes more. Meanwhile, reheat soubise, and transfer to a plate. Top with omelet. Garnish with cheese.
