Green omelette with ham

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 4 slices of bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 - 3 drops of blue food coloring
  • 1/4 cup (about 220 g) chopped ham
  • Special equipment: cookie cutters

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C.

    Using cookie cutters, cut out various shapes from the bread and brush them with butter. Arrange them on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Crack the eggs into a medium bowl by lightly tapping them on the countertop. Gently press the crack with your thumbs and separate the two shell halves. Discard the shells. Season the eggs with a pinch of salt, a pinch of black pepper, and 2-3 drops of blue food coloring to achieve the desired green color. Whisk the eggs until thoroughly combined.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Make sure an adult is nearby. Add the ham to the skillet and cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Stir with a wooden spoon to prevent burning. Pour the eggs directly onto the ham. Cook, without stirring, until the eggs begin to set, about 2 minutes. Use a spatula to fold the eggs as they set.
  4. Slice the omelette with the edge of a spatula. Transfer the finished omelette to small plates and serve with toasted bread.
