Discover the rich flavors of a classic breakfast favorite with this easy and delicious Spinach Omelet recipe. Perfect for a quick weekday meal or a leisurely weekend brunch, this omelet combines tender spinach, creamy cheddar cheese, and fluffy eggs, all seasoned to perfection. Simple ingredients come together for a nourishing dish that will leave you satisfied and looking forward to your next bite.
Instructions:
- Grate the cheddar cheese, if not already done.
- Wash and finely chop the spinach. Set aside.
- Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, and beat them until they are well combined. Add a dash of salt and black pepper to the eggs and mix again.
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Add 0.5 tablespoons of the butter to the pan and let it melt.
- Once the butter is melted and starts to bubble, add the chopped spinach.
- Sauté the spinach for about 1-2 minutes until it is wilted and cooked through. Remove the spinach from the pan and set it aside in a small bowl.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the same pan and allow it to melt over medium-low heat.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
- Add the sautéed spinach on top of the cheese.
- Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelet over the fillings to form a semi-circle.
- Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked through, making sure not to overcook.
- Gently slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, for an added touch.
Tips:
- Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen spinach, make sure to thaw and drain it well to avoid excess moisture in the omelet.
- Cook the omelet on medium-low heat to ensure the eggs cook evenly and do not burn.
- For a fluffier omelet, beat the eggs vigorously to incorporate more air before cooking.
- Feel free to add additional ingredients such as tomatoes, mushrooms, or onions for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Allow the omelet to set slightly before adding cheese and fold gently to avoid breaking.
