How to make caramelised onion omelette
This is not the French-style omelette that is a meal in itself, but omelette like my mum used to make it, best to eat with rice. Parsley sprinkles are unnecessary. I was just desperate to use up some in my fridge.
- Slice onions finely.
- Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan set over very low heat. Add onions and stir to cook frequently, until onions turn soft. Do not allow to brown.
- Sprinkle mirin over onions and continue cooking until onions become sticky and golden.
- While the onions were cooking, crack eggs into a bowl and add the salt and pepper. Beat well.
- Distribute onions evenly over pan. Turn up heat to medium and add eggs to the pan with the onions.
- Stir gently with a spatula while swirling the pan. Do this until the surface is just set and the underside is golden brown.
- Flip the omelette over to cook the other side.
- Slide onto a plate and either leave whole to serve, or cut it up into quarters.
so simple.. so delish
