Title: South African Ostrich Egg Omelette
Categories: Exotics, Vegetables, Dairy, Herbs, Cheese
Yield: 6 Servings
1 Ostrich egg
1 Bell pepper (red or green);
- diced
3 Spring onions; sliced
1/2 c Cheddar cheese; grated
3 tb (90 g) butter
6 tb Milk
Salt & pepper
Fresh thyme; garnish
Use the back of a knife to crack the shell of the
ostrich egg, being careful with your fingers. Pour the
egg into a large mixing bowl.
Add diced red bell pepper, diced spring onion, milk,
salt and pepper to the mixing bowl.
Using a whisk, give the mixture a good mix to bring the
ingredients together.
On a low heat, add the knobs of butter to a frying pan
until melted.
Gently pour in the omelette mixture, moving the mixture
from the edges in the beginning until it begins to set.
Once one side has set enough to get leverage underneath
with a spatula, flip it over so that it can cook on both
sides. It should only take 2 minutes for the mixture to
be flippable.
Add your cheddar cheese on top, spread evenly so that it
melts through.
Cook for a further 2 minutes. Check that it is
thoroughly cooked by poking with a knife and ensuring
there are no watery bits still lingering in the pan.
Once it is cooked, flip half of the omelette onto the
other half to create a semi-circle and remove from the
pan to the plate.
Season with thyme and additional salt and pepper to
taste.
