Omelette with a goat’s cheese twist ... it's simply super

 Now, I'd call this 'simply super' ... but then I just love the mix of eggs, chives and goats cheese, simply served with a side salad. Yum !


Ingredients
Serves One
3 eggs
Handful fresh chives, finely chopped
½ tbsp olive oil
30g goat's cheese

Method
1. Whisk the eggs until well combined. Add the chives and season with black pepper.
2. Place the oil in a small omelette pan over a medium heat. When the pan is hot, pour in the eggs. Swirl the pan gently over the heat to ensure the base of the pan is coated evenly. Use a spatula to slowly push the uncooked mixture to the edges.
3. When the omelette starts to set on the bottom, sprinkle over the goat’s cheese. Leave until almost entirely set, then fold over in the pan and slide on to a plate. Serve with a cherry tomato salad.

Each serving provides

Hello and thank you for your comment/question.

Feta would be my first choice as an alternative but cream cheese, ricotta, labneh, and mascarpone could also be considered.

I hope you may enjoy this omelette soon :)

All the best Jan

Goat’s cheese and fresh chives are absolute magic together when you want a quick, flavorful lunch. Soft, tangy cheese melting right into warm eggs makes something so simple feel genuinely fancy. Serving it alongside those fresh cherry tomatoes adds that perfect pop of acidity to balance out the richness.

You mentioned my favourite ingredients: eggs and goat cheese. The latter is generally a better option for cholesterol and heart health compared to aged cow's milk cheeses.

21st Century mystery: why do my omelettes end up as scrambled eggs?

Hello Victor, thank you for your comment and question.

Sometimes, making an omelette can feel like a simple task, but when it turns into scrambled eggs instead, things get a little confusing. and this happens to many.

The main reason your omelette turns into scrambled eggs is usually due to overcooking. If the eggs are left on the heat for too long, they will begin to break apart and form small curds, resulting in a scrambled texture.

There are some good tips in this article here:-

I'm sure with these tips you will enjoy a perfectly cooked omelette soon.

All the best Jan

God bless.
