Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make an omelet with tomatoes in a frying pan? To begin with, we will prepare all the necessary ingredients so as not to be distracted during the cooking process. Tomatoes are better to choose ripe and fragrant. We will remove the skin from them so that the omelet is more tender. It's good if the eggs have time to take room temperature. Take milk of any fat content that you are used to. I have a steel frying pan, but it would be safer to take an aluminum one with a non-stick coating.
Step 2:
Wash tomatoes under running water and make a cross-shaped incision on the skin. I have summer, ripe tomatoes, so the skin was removed from them easily. If it is removed poorly, put the tomatoes in a deep heat-resistant bowl and pour boiling water so that the tomatoes are completely covered with water. After 2-3 minutes, the skin should be better separated from the pulp. Remove the stalk from the tomatoes and cut into small cubes.
Step 3:
In a frying pan over medium heat, heat the oil and put the tomatoes. Caution: most likely, there will be splashes! You can immediately cover the pan with a lid until they pass. Simmer the tomatoes for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. They should become soft.
Step 4:
During this time, we will prepare the eggs. Beat the eggs washed under running water with a whisk until bubbles form. Add salt and pepper to taste. Then pour in the milk and mix the mixture again with a whisk. Milk will give the omelet an unprecedented tenderness.
Step 5:
Pour the eggs into the pan and cover immediately. The fire is medium. Please note: the omelet is cooked for 3-5 minutes under the lid, without removing it until the dish is ready! You can slightly open and assess the degree of readiness.
Step 6:
As soon as the eggs are well set and there is no liquid left on the surface, the omelet is ready. Remove it from the heat. Whatever one may say, but the omelet will fall off, and this is inevitable. We can only cheat a little and leave the pan for another 2 minutes under a closed lid. Then the loss in height will be minimal.
Step 7:
During this time, you can have time to cut fresh herbs for serving or ask the coffee machine to cook you a cup of fragrant espresso :)
How great that there are such simple but cool recipes for delicious breakfasts! Sometimes you forget about them in the pursuit of almond croissants and desserts with chia seeds :) But that makes it more joyful, by chance, to remember about them and cook for your loved ones!
Bon appetit!
How do I know if an egg is fresh? Break it into a separate container. First of all, there should be no unpleasant smell. The protein of fresh eggs will be transparent and clean. The yolk should not spread and will be shiny, convex, homogeneous.
Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.
