Veggie Omlet


My son and daughter like these kind of Omlets. Rather than the normal ones with just the onion or without the onion.



This is a very versatile omlet you can just about twist the contents based on what you have with you.



I mostly prefer to use carrots, potatoes, zucchini.




Omlet


Ingredients
Veggies (Carrot, Potatoes, zucchini, etc.) - 1/4 cup
Onion (Big) - 1
Salt to taste
Black Pepper Powder to taste
All purpose flour - 2 tb.sp
Eggs - 2 to 3
Cheese - 2 tb.sp (optional , I have not added here)


Method
Peel and grate the veggies in a fine grater. Chop the onions finely. Put eveything together in a mixing bowl. Except the eggs. I like to use homemade Pepper powder than the store brought ones. Somehow I feel something is missing in the store brought ones. You can also use green chillies if you like it. Since I mostly make it for children I avoid using green chillies. Heat a skillet to medium heat. Smear it with oil. Now add the eggs with the mixture and beat lightly. Pour a ladle of this mix on the hot skillet and spread it out slightly. Let it cook, but be careful not to let it get overcooked. Turn to the other side and again let it cook.

I comes out very spongy and is very filling. Serve hot with tomato sauce or as a sandwich between breads. It is good as evening snacks as well as for morning breakfast.

Note : Adding Cheese adds to the taste a lot, but a keep a check on the salt u add. Also instead of smearing the skillet with oil you can also use butter. This also adds to the taste.

Scrape the zucchinis in a big scraper. Add salt, mix it and leave it closed for about 5 to 10 minutes. Now drain of the excess water and add rest of the ingredients. Mix them a little. Heat a pan and smear it with butter.
Pour the mixture on the hot pan with a ladle and spread it a little. Cook till it is done a little and then turn the side.

Serve hot.
