A pile of tortillas, not eggs. While they are both flatbreads, tortillas are typically made with cornflour and cooked on a flat griddle, while omelettes are made with eggs and cooked in a pan with butter or oil.
Therefore, it is unlikely that the woman in the image is making an omelette.
However, it is possible that she could use the tortillas to make another dish. For example, she could cut them into wedges and bake them to make tortilla chips.
Making an omelette or using tortillas to make chips are not necessarily traits that indicate a faithful woman.
Here’s a classic omelette recipe you can make by hand:
Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or water (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
Optional fillings:
- Shredded cheese (cheddar, Gruyere, Swiss, etc.)
- Chopped vegetables (onions, peppers, mushrooms, spinach)
- Diced ham or cooked sausage
- Fresh herbs (chopped chives, parsley)
Instructions:
-
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the milk or water (if using), salt, and pepper. Beat vigorously with a fork until well combined and frothy. This adds air to the eggs, making the omelette light and fluffy.
-
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the butter and swirl to coat the bottom.
-
Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 10 seconds, until the edges start to set.
-
Using a heat-resistant spatula, gently tilt the pan and use the spatula to push the cooked egg towards the center. This allows the uncooked egg to run underneath and cook evenly.
-
Continue tilting and pushing the cooked egg towards the center until most of the liquid egg is cooked.
-
Now comes the fun part – the folding! If you’re adding any fillings, sprinkle them over one half of the omelette. Use the spatula to gently fold the other half over the filling.
-
Cook for another 10-15 seconds, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
-
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious homemade omelette!
Tips:
- For a truly French omelette, use only a small amount of butter and cook the omelette over low heat. This will result in a very soft and delicate omelette.
- Don’t overcook the omelette! It should be cooked through but still slightly moist inside.
- Get creative with your fillings! There are endless possibilities.
- If you don’t have a non-stick pan, you can use a regular pan, but make sure to coat it well with butter or oil before adding the eggs. classic omelette recipe
