Vegan Omelette For One Food

VEGAN OMELETTE

Steps:

• Watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Heat about 1-2 teaspoons of oil in a skillet and add the onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Saute for a few minutes until the veggies are softened, then turn off the heat.
• Meanwhile, grind 60 grams of red lentils (or split mung beans) in an electric coffee/spice grinder (or high-speed blender) until it's flour. You can also use store-bought lentil flour or mung bean flour. Chickpea flour works too.
• Combine all dry ingredients (ground lentils, tapioca flour, salt, black pepper, cumin, smoked paprika, Kala namak, and turmeric) in a medium-large bowl and stir until combined.
• Add the water and stir with a whisk. Also, add the cooked veggies and fresh herbs (I used parsley), and stir again with a spoon.Allow the batter to sit: Allowing the batter to sit for 5-10 minutes helps create a better consistency. It's not necessary though, but if you have the time, leave it for an extra few minutes.
• Heat a few teaspoons of oil in a skillet (use the same that you used to saute the veggies, just wipe it clean with a tissue) and pour in half of the batter once the oil is hot.
• Spread it evenly with a spoon and let the omelette cook over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes, then flip it over with a spatula (pancake turner) and cook the other side for a few minutes.
• Repeat this process with the other omelette, serve, and enjoy!

THE BEST VEGAN OMELETTE EVER

Steps:

• Heat 1 tsp olive oil over medium-high heat, add onion and cook until translucent and fragrant, 3-5 mins.
• Add the onion to a blender along with tofu, nutritional yeast, oil, garlic powder, and turmeric. As you're blending, add about a tablespoon at a time of soy milk to help the mixture blend. Puree until you have a smooth paste. Scrape down the sides as needed.
• Add the cornstarch and bouillon, and slowly add the rice flour and puree again for about 30 seconds, add black salt and pepper, and more soy milk if needed, blend again until combined and thick, scraping down the sides. The batter should resemble a pancake batter. Set aside.
• Heat 1 tbsp vegan butter or oil in a nonstick skillet, sauté 2 cloves of garlic, shallot and mushrooms until the mushrooms are browned add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tsp of vegan butter and coat the pan.
• Add half of the tofu batter, and spread it gently with a spatula to cover the bottom of the skillet completely.
• Cover, and cook the omelet for 5 - 8 minutes, or until top seems dry.
• Gently loosen the omelet from the bottom of the pan with a spatula and carefully flip and cook it for another 2 minutes.
• Loosen the omelet again, and some of the toppings to one side of the omelet.
• Gently with your spatula, fold over the other side of the omelet and transfer onto a serving plate. Repeat with remaining batter and fillings.

VEGGIE OMELET FOR ONE

Steps:

• Melt one tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place onion and peppers and musrhoom inside of the skillet. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes stirring occasionally until vegetables are just tender.
• While the vegetables are cooking beat the eggs and egg whites with the milk.
• Remove the vegetables from heat and put in small bowl and keep warm.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter (in the skillet just used to cook the vegetables) over medium heat. Coat the skillet with the butter. When the butter is bubbly add the egg mixture and cook the egg for 2 minutes or until the eggs begin to set on the bottom of the pan. Gently lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula to let the uncooked part of the eggs flow toward the edges and cook. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes or until the center of the omelet starts to look dry.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the omelet and spoon the vegetable mixture into the center of the omelet. Using a spatula gently fold one edge of the omelet over the vegetables. Let the omelet cook for another two minutes or until the cheese melts to your desired consistency. Slide the omelet out of the skillet and onto a plate.
