How to Make...Perfect Omelet By Punjabi Cooking

green chili

🥗Healthier: jalapeño

💰Cheaper: bell pepper

Jalapeño adds heat while bell pepper is milder and more affordable.

cilantro

🥗Healthier: parsley

💰Cheaper: green onions

Parsley offers a similar fresh flavor, while green onions are often cheaper.

Crack eggs into a bowl and beat until well combined.

Finely chop onion, tomato, green chili, and cilantro.

Add chopped vegetables to the beaten eggs.

Season with salt, black pepper, cumin powder, and turmeric powder; mix well.

Heat oil and butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Pour the egg mixture into the pan, spreading evenly.

Cook until the edges begin to set, about 2-3 minutes.

Gently lift the edges with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.

Flip the omelet carefully when the bottom is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

Cook the other side until golden and fully set, about 2 minutes more.

Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with extra cilantro if desired.

Serve hot with bread or chutney.
