How To Make Omelet with Prosciutto, Roasted Peppers, Fresh Mozzarella, Basil?

1. Whisk the eggs: Beat the eggs in a bowl until smooth and fluffy.
2. Heat the pan: Melt butter in a 6-inch nonstick pan over medium heat, then add a little olive oil.
3. Cook the eggs: Pour the eggs into the pan, season with salt and black pepper, and gently stir with a fork until slightly scrambled.
4. Add the fillings: Arrange mozzarella, roasted red peppers, prosciutto, and basil in a line down the center.
5. Roll and serve: Carefully roll the omelet and transfer it to a plate. Serve warm and enjoy!

Recipe Tips:

• Whisk the eggs well: Make sure to whisk the eggs until fully combined and slightly foamy. This helps create a light and fluffy omelet.
• Use medium heat: Cooking on medium heat prevents the eggs from browning too quickly while keeping them soft and tender.
• Don’t overfill the omelet: Adding too many fillings can make it hard to roll and may cause the omelet to break. Keep the filling light and evenly spread.
• Let the eggs set before adding fillings: Wait until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly soft in the center before adding the cheese, prosciutto, and peppers. This makes rolling easier.
• Roll the omelet gently: Use a spatula to carefully lift the edges and roll it onto the plate without pressing too hard, keeping the inside creamy and delicious.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: Let the leftover omelet cool to room temperature, then place it in an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
• Reheat: Heat a nonstick pan over low heat and add a little butter or oil. Warm the omelet for about 1-2 minutes per side until heated through.
