Omelette with Stracchino and Cooked Ham
Category: Main Dishes
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Eggs | 6 |
| Stracchino Cheese | 100g |
| Cooked Ham (prosciutto cotto) | 100g |
| Butter | 40g |
| Salt | to taste |
| Black Pepper | to taste |
Instructions:
-
Begin by cracking the eggs into a bowl. Season them with a pinch of salt and black pepper to your liking. Beat the eggs gently until well mixed and slightly frothy.
-
Next, place a 26 cm (10-inch) non-stick crepe pan over medium heat. Add the butter, cut into small cubes, and allow it to melt. Once the butter has melted, use a paper towel to spread it evenly over the surface of the pan, ensuring a smooth and uniform coating.
-
Pour half of the beaten eggs into the pan and let them cook gently for 3-4 minutes, keeping the heat at a moderate level. As the edges start to set, gently lift them with a spatula to allow any uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
-
While the omelette is cooking, cut the cooked ham into thin slices. Once the eggs have set but the top is still slightly runny, arrange the slices of cooked ham evenly on one side of the omelette.
-
Allow the omelette to cook for a few more moments, just enough for the ham to warm up and the edges of the omelette to firm up. Once done, use a spatula or knife to fold the omelette in half, bringing the two sides together like a book, enclosing the ham and the creamy eggs inside.
-
Serve immediately, garnished with a bit more black pepper if desired. This dish pairs wonderfully with a light salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
Enjoy your fluffy, savory omelette with stracchino and cooked ham, perfect for a satisfying lunch or dinner!
