Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all your ingredients and have them measured and ready to go.
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Allow it to heat up for about 1-2 minutes, ensuring the oil is hot but not smoking.
- Crack the 3 eggs into a medium-sized bowl.
- Add the dash of salt and the 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder to the eggs.
- Using a whisk or fork, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
- Once the oil is properly heated, pour the egg mixture into the pan.
- Allow the eggs to sit undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Once the edges begin to firm, gently lift them with a spatula and tilt the pan to let the uncooked egg flow to the edges.
- Continue cooking until the omelet is almost set but still a little runny on top, typically around 3-4 minutes in total.
- Carefully lift one side of the omelet with the spatula and fold it over to the other side, forming a half-moon shape.
- Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute to ensure it’s cooked through but still soft and fluffy.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- If desired, garnish with additional herbs or a sprinkle of cheese.
- Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your delicious garlic-infused omelet!
Tips:
- Use fresh eggs for the best texture and flavor.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to incorporate air, resulting in a fluffier omelet.
- Cook on medium-low heat to avoid burning the garlic and to ensure the omelet cooks evenly.
- You can add additional ingredients like cheese, herbs, or vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Be gentle when folding or flipping the omelet to maintain its structure.
Enjoy your garlic-infused omelet as a standalone dish or pair it with toast, fresh vegetables, or a side salad for a well-rounded meal. The infusion of garlic powder adds a unique twist to the traditional omelet, making it a delightful and memorable dish. This recipe proves that you don't need many ingredients to create a tasty and fulfilling breakfast.
