A La Di Stasio~Omelet~
So easy to make..so easy to eat~
A beautifully puffed omelet from one of her recent shows~
I must admit I am "Inconsolable"..to have missed years of her episodes because we did not get her channel..Now I ..we ..are glued to the television on Fridays at 8 p.m..
You simply take 2 egg whites and beat them quite stiffly..fold in your 2 egg yolks..some salt and pepper..
and set the mixture in a non stick prepared skillet.. your egg mixture should fill the diameter of your skillet...on medium heat until you see the mixture begin to take underneath.. add cheese..(goat..or whatever soft cheese you like) ..herbs.. etc..
Place under the grill until done..remove and fold..Plate~
Success every time..it's like a soufflomelet~♥
She's my favorite show..~Ok one of my favorites..Ricardo ..too:)
The omelet is gorgeous when it comes out of the oven..
A wonderful light meal~

She is MOST charming.. annd the shows are beautifully photographed and styled.
She is intelligent,bright and vivacious..Not fluff:)..The true thing:)
We love her.
I just made a cheesy omelete for my daughter ... she wanted a supper snack before bed. I should have read your post earlier. Now I know the secret to making fluffy soufflomelete. :) I love that word already.
ReplyDeleteOh Monique,
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try this easy looking recipe, to impress my hubby. He is the real chef of the family, and I always take a back seat to him in the kitchen. ;) Although, he can't take a spoon to my baking! He is the improvisor who never writes down his own recipes, or follows anyone elses. I excel at baking, for exactly the opposite reasons. Anyway, glad to see this recipe to use some of the fresh farm eggs we just purchased at a local farm.
Have a wonderful day!

Bonjour Monique ~ I am always amazed at your beautiful photos and today I find these most gorgeous white daisies ~ so very pretty. I'm going right now to make that omelette because it is early morning here & that will make a tasty breakfast.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week-end

I hope I don't disappoint anyone:) I hope all of yours are beautiful too..This post was created a while ago..when my Feverfew was in bloom~
ReplyDeleteIt looks delicious...like a little cloud!

I wish you could all get her show too:)
ReplyDeleteYou would be happy to watch it..It's the fasted hour on TV..w/ Grey's and Parenthood and Tout le Monde En parle:)
I so wish I could see that show!
ReplyDeleteOmelets are a family favorite, but I've never made one this way, Monique. It's beautiful and light!
And BTW...those mignonettes? Fabulous!
That's how it's often done in restaurants so the whole thing is cooked and not overdone on the bottom to cook the top properly. Great job with it and I love the photos... what magical light!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done and photographed! I've never made omelets like that - I can't wait to try this technique. Thank you, M!
ReplyDeleteOh! too bad we don't have cable- I think I am missing out.
ReplyDeleteThe omelette looks delicious and I will have to try this-thank you!
Have a great weekend,
Carolyn
p.s. I don't know if I mentioned how cute your little ones are on the sidebar.
Monique, I think you have made the most gorgeous omelet on the planet. Fantastic photos with the daisies. You've given me wonderful reasons for smiles this morning.
ReplyDeleteSam
Good morning..thank you about the little men:)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy ..I hope you get to try the soufflomelet..I think you'll just like looking at it puff up in the oven:)too..
Lovely omelet! Omelets are a favorite of mine...yours is beautiful! I will try it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous omelet! So light and airy~ your photos are art!
ReplyDeleteOh, my - that is a lovely omelette! I'll have to try it, most definitely, and it's very different from my usual: lightly beat two eggs, add tarragon, and cook. Merci a bunch!
