What is Omelette

It is a dish made of beaten eggs fried in butter. The word omelette is French meaning “thin small plate” pertaining to the omelette's flat shape. Its history can be traced as far back as ancient Persia, where cooks concocted savory meals with beaten eggs as a base. Although its origin is untraceable, the Omelet has been present in many different cultures. There is one myth that it originated when Napoleon and his army were traveling through a small town and the in keeper served him an Omelette. Napoleon loved it so much that he asked for all the eggs in the town to be cooked and served to the army the next day. It did mark the beginning of an annual festival in the town of Bessieres, France where every year a giant omelette is made for all the townspeople to enjoy.

Vega using your favorite dish can be quite fun, exciting and fulfilling because you know you are feeding people good nutritious tasty meals.

Ingredients

  • 16 oz Just Egg: Our egg substitute base, made from mung beans.
  • 1 Stalk Leek or Any Aromatic: Adds a mild onion-like flavor.
  • 8 oz Kale: Packed with vitamins and minerals.
  • 2 Slices Vegan Cheese: For that cheesy goodness.
  • 3 tablespoon Vegan Butter: Helps achieve that perfect omelette texture.
  • Black Salt (Kala Namak): For an authentic eggy flavor.
  • Optional: Nutritional Yeast, Garlic Powder, Bell Pepper, Green Onions, or your favorite vegetables.

Steps

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and chop the leek and kale. If using additional vegetables like bell peppers or green onions, chop those as well.
  2. Sauté the Aromatics: In a non-stick pan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of vegan butter. Add the chopped leek (or your chosen aromatic) and sauté until softened.
  3. Cook the Kale: Add the chopped kale to the pan and cook until wilted. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
  4. Cook the Omelette: In the same pan, add the remaining vegan butter. Pour in the Just Egg and let it sit without stirring for a few minutes to set the bottom.
  5. Add Fillings: Once the edges start to set, add the sautéed vegetables and vegan cheese slices on one half of the omelette.
  6. Fold and Finish: Carefully fold the omelette in half to cover the fillings. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the vegan cheese melts and the omelette is cooked through.
  7. Season and Serve: Sprinkle black salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

  • Vegan Butter: Olive oil or coconut oil can be used instead.
  • Leek: Replace with onions, shallots, or green onions.
  • Kale: Use spinach, swiss chard, or any leafy green.

FAQ

Can I make this omelette without Just Egg? Yes, you can use a mixture of chickpea flour (besan) and water as an egg substitute. The ratio is usually 1 part chickpea flour to 1 part water.

How do I get the omelette to taste like eggs? Adding black salt (kala namak) to the Just Egg mixture will give it an authentic eggy flavor due to its high sulfur content.

Can I store leftovers? It's best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a non-stick pan over medium heat.

What can I serve with this vegan omelette? Pair it with a side of hash browns, toast, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Is this recipe gluten-free? Yes, Just Egg and the other ingredients used in this recipe are gluten-free. Just ensure your vegan cheese is also gluten-free.

Top Tip

For a fluffier omelette, cook it on medium-low heat and cover the pan with a lid to trap the steam. This helps the omelette cook evenly and become more fluffy.

Hint

Use a non-stick skillet to make flipping and folding the omelette easier without it sticking to the pan.

This easy vegan omelette recipe is a wonderful addition to any breakfast or brunch menu. It’s simple, flavorful, and versatile enough to cater to various tastes and dietary preferences. Happy cooking!

It is best to use a wide non stick pan to avoid vegan egg from sticking to the pan. 
Tilting the pan all around distributes the vegan egg evenly all across the pan.
