Ingredients
- 4 large free-range eggs
- 6 thin slices of bacon, chopped
- 10 pitted green olives, sliced
- Pinch of Himalayan salt (or sea salt)
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 1 handful parsley
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (not necessary if using a non-stick pan)
Directions
What are we cooking today?
This traditional French omelet is fluffy and heavenly, while the crispy bacon adds a classic taste and texture to it.
Getting started
- Heat the oil in large flat pan.
Lay the bacon equally on the surface of the pan and roast for about 5 minutes.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper and beat them well with a whisk or fork.
Turn the bacon on the other side when it gets slightly golden in colour.
Lower the heat and pour in the eggs equally all over the pan. Don't rush it and don't try to cook it fast or it will end up being too crispy and dry.
Sprinkle with tomatoes and sliced olives and cook for another minute or until the top appears to be almost cooked and firm.
Using a spatula, ease around the edges of the omelet, remove the pan from the heat, and slide it on to a serving plate.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
Annabelle's tip
For a more traditional omelet, fold the omelet over in half and then sprinkle with the olives and tomatoes.
Delicious with toasted sourdough bread.
