Variations of Plain Omelet

Variations of the plain puffy omelet or the plain French omelet may be made by adding any of the following ingredients to the omelet before it is put into the pan to cook, or by spreading one of them on top just before the omelet is folded. Allow one tablespoon of mixture to each two eggs used. Fish-Use any cooked fish. Chop it fine, season with salt and pepper and moisten with a little cream. Spread on the omelet before folding.

Ham or other meat-Scatter finely chopped meat over the center of the omelet while it is cooking. The meat may be improved by browning in a small amount of fat before it is added. Cheese or parsley-Prepare as for ham omelet.

Onion-Mix one tablespoon chopped onion and one teaspoon chopped parsley. Add to the omelet mixture before cooking. Jelly-Spread any jelly or jam over the omelet just before folding.
