Omelette is one of my favorite dishes to make and really is the ultimate “fast food” that works all year round! You can both make them a bit “heavier” during alumn and winter, or fresh and light during spring and summer. Eggs are a great source of nutrients, they are versatile and filling. When spring arrives and asparagus can be found in the store my go to omelette is this asparagus and feta cheese omelette. This omelette is really so great and has it all! It has crispy, thinly sliced asparagus, light and porous eggs and the creamy and tangy feta cheese. This combination is really amazing yet so very easy and basic. I love slicing my asparagus thinly and just frying it for a few minutes before adding the eggs. This omelette is perfect to serve for breakfast, brunch or lunch! Isn’t it amazing what you can create with just there key ingredients?
A few tips:
- Which your eggs until small bubbels start to appear on the surface. The egg mixture should be light and fluffy.
- Slice the asparagus thinly and lay out over the whole pan and fry for just 1-2 minutes for it to keep the crunch but still become a bit warm.
- Add the feta cheese just before you fold the omelette. I love when the feta cheese isn’t completely melted and you still have some pieces that are unmelted.
