- certainly fluffy, tender, tasty and melting in your mouth. But does it always turn out like this? In the morning, everyone is rushing to work, and the time for preparing breakfast is reduced to a minimum. Sometimes, instead of an airy omelette, the plates end up with a dry, dense mass, more reminiscent of an egg pie. An unsuccessful culinary “masterpiece” can be disguised with herbs, delicious sauces, meat, vegetable, mushroom and cheese fillings. But every housewife wants to cook a delicious omelette that doesn’t have to be hidden under ham and cheese, but how to learn this art? Many cookbooks write that an omelette is a very complex dish that requires skill, dexterity and knowledge of some special secrets. In fact, everything is much simpler, and even a novice housewife can easily understand how to properly prepare an omelette and surprise the whole family.

Preparing dishes and ingredients for the omelette

Nice frying pan. Omelet is a capricious dish that will not be cooked in the wrong container with a thin or uneven bottom. The ideal option is a cast-iron frying pan with a non-stick coating, which heats up evenly and retains heat for a long time, although a regular Teflon frying pan is also suitable for preparing omelettes. It is good if the lid has a hole for air to escape so that the omelette does not turn out too watery.

Egg quality. The eggs should be very fresh, preferably homemade, but if you buy them in a store, try to choose only high-quality products. The fact is that you can’t make a delicious omelet from bad eggs, no matter how hard you try. The most suitable store-bought eggs for omelettes are diet and table eggs. Fresh eggs have a shell without shine and are not too light in weight. The most famous way to check is to put the eggs in water. Fresh ones sink immediately.

Oil. The best oil for frying omelettes is butter: tasty, aromatic. Despite the fact that many people fry omelettes in vegetable oil, it is high-quality butter that makes the dish melting and tender.

How to cook a lush and tender omelette: secrets and subtleties

The recipe seems simple even for a schoolchild: beat eggs with milk or cream, add salt, pour the egg mixture into an oiled hot frying pan and fry for several minutes under a closed lid over medium heat. Then cut the omelette into portions or place the whole omelette on a plate and sprinkle with herbs. However, knowing some tricks and culinary techniques will help you prepare an airy omelette with a creamy taste that all family members will devour with gusto.

Beat the eggs. Culinary experts say that it is better to beat an omelette with a whisk or fork, rather than with a blender or mixer, so as not to disturb the structure of the whites and yolks - such an omelette turns out to be especially fluffy. For a diet omelet, use only whites, and if you want a thicker consistency of the dish, prepare an omelet from yolks. For an omelet-soufflé, the whites are whipped into a fluffy foam, then the yolks and other ingredients are added. The most important thing is to bake the omelette as soon as the eggs are beaten, otherwise the dish will turn out dense and flat.

The splendor of an omelette. Despite the fact that dairy products are added to eggs for fluffiness, do not overuse liquid - ideally, there should be 1 tbsp per 1 egg. l. cream or milk, otherwise it will be too wet and will fall off. Instead of milk, you can use broths, kefir or fermented baked milk - with fermented milk products the omelet turns out very high and airy. If you add a little sour cream or mayonnaise to the egg mixture, the dish will acquire a pleasant creamy taste, and with mineral water the omelette becomes unusually light and fluffy. Some recipes recommend adding a little semolina or flour to the eggs - no more than 1½ tsp. for 4 eggs. Flour gives the dish a slightly denser consistency, retains its shape and adds volume - for this purpose, some people add soda, starch or a pinch of yeast to the eggs. And only the French do not add anything to the omelette, believing that it should not rise. Well, there is no arguing about tastes!

Delicious filling. You can add additional ingredients to the egg-milk mixture - seasonings, vegetables, mushrooms, meat, fish, powdered sugar instead of salt, fruits, nuts and chocolate. It all depends on the recipe, tastes and preferences of family members, but even if you are a follower of conservative culinary traditions, try making a sweet omelet at least once. It is no coincidence that the first omelets that appeared in Ancient Rome were desserts that were prepared with honey. It is important that all the ingredients that are added to the eggs, from milk to pieces of meat, are not cold, otherwise the omelet will not rise.

How to fry. At first it should be fried over high heat, but as soon as it starts to rise, the heat should be reduced to a minimum so that the dish simmers under the lid until cooked. If it is still wet on top and already burning on the bottom, pierce the omelette with a fork or slightly lift it with a spatula so that the liquid component drips down. You can fry the omelette on both sides, and after turning off the heat, leave the dish covered for a couple of minutes so that it reaches the desired condition.

How to serve. The omelette is served in the form of portioned pieces, folded in half or into a tube, filled with sweet or savory filling. There are thousands - it can be a delicious dessert, a hot or cold appetizer, a main dish, a side dish, a base for sandwiches, an ingredient for salads and sushi. Each country has its own peculiarities of preparing this dish, and if you want to learn how to make a French, English or American omelette, you can go on a trip, because it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times...

We wish you pleasant culinary discoveries and bold experiments!

It turns out that omelette is an international dish. It is prepared in almost every country in the world. True, the recipes and names are somewhat different.

Basic secrets of making omelettes

There are many more subtleties in preparing this dish. There is no way to do without their knowledge:

• Take a responsible approach to choosing the frying pan on which you will fry the omelet. It is desirable that it be thick-bottomed and distribute heat evenly over the entire bottom. Cast iron frying pans best meet these requirements. If you don't have one, a modern Teflon-coated frying pan will also work. The only condition is that its bottom thickness must be at least 5 mm. This will prevent you from burning the dish.

• Use only fresh eggs. Remember: the taste of the omelet depends on the quality of the product.

Pay attention to the shell. An even matte color is a sign of freshness of the egg. If the shell is shiny, the freshness of the product is questionable.

• Contrary to the cries of nutritionists, the most delicious omelet is made with butter. True, it has a considerable calorie content.
• Do not beat the eggs with a mixer: knead the mixture with a whisk or fork.

Remember: the more thoroughly you mix the milk and eggs, the tastier the omelet will be.

• To make the omelette fluffy, grease the inside of the lid with which you cover the frying pan with butter.
• To make the omelette more filling, you can add flour or semolina to the egg mixture. But don’t overdo it, otherwise you’ll get a tight crust instead of a fluffy omelette.
• If you bake in the oven, do not open the door under any circumstances while it is baking.
• If you pre-fry the onions, do not bring them to a golden color. Otherwise, in the omelette during subsequent heat treatment, it will become very fried.
• Cooking an omelette in a frying pan must first be done over high heat. And when it starts to rise, you should reduce the heat to low.
• Greens can be added to the egg mixture or sprinkled on top of the finished dish. The last option is good because the greens will retain more vitamins and be more aromatic. This means that the food will be much healthier.

I am sure that now you can make an omelet that everyone who tries it will create legends about. After all, if you approach it with love, even the classic version can become a real masterpiece. And I wish you more such masterpieces. Cook with pleasure and in a great mood!

The longer the beating process takes place, the fluffier the dish will be.

In the meantime, grease the frying pan with butter or ghee and add a little sunflower oil so that there is no smoke when heating the container.

Ingredients for diet omelet:

Secrets of cooking a lush omelette with milk in a frying pan

If you decide to please yourself or your loved ones with a lush omelette with milk in a frying pan and are trying to get the porous structure of the finished hearty dish, consider the recommendations given here:

1. An egg dish will rise well and not sag if you choose the right pan. It is best to prepare a hearty breakfast in a frying pan with high sides and a flat bottom.

1. If you are making a delicacy based on three eggs, then it is optimal to take a frying pan with a diameter of 15 cm. When the dishes are wider, the omelette mixture simply spreads and the result is a pancake. You should not use containers with a smaller diameter. Of course, in this case the dish will turn out high. But, most likely, you will be unpleasantly surprised by its excessive density.

1. And one more thing: do not forget to warm up the selected dish properly before pouring the omelette mixture into it, either pure or with additives. It is very important! As a rule, in a cold frying pan, an egg dish simply does not rise or falls immediately.

Omelette is loved, if not by everyone, then by many. This easy, affordable and tasty dish can be served for breakfast, lunch, dinner and even at the holiday table. But do we know how to cook it correctly? Each housewife has her own secrets for preparing an omelet with milk in a frying pan, and we will share with you some recipes and nuances of creating this dish.

What is important to know

A pan-cooked omelette can consist of a variety of ingredients, depending on the tastes and preferences of your family and guests. But the main products you will need are:

• milk;
• eggs;
• salt;
• spices;
• oil for frying.

The choice of milk and eggs should be treated with special attention. Products must be fresh. If you want to cook an omelet with curdled milk, make sure that it is not weathered or covered with a thick film - it is better not to use such sour milk for food.

Omelet is a very simple and satisfying dish that can be prepared both on weekdays and on holidays.

Before cooking, remove the eggs from the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to allow them to come to room temperature. Be sure to wash them to protect your dish from salmonella (this especially applies to home-cooked eggs).

Note! Eggs can cause considerable harm to your health if you consume them in large quantities. Excess protein leads to increased cholesterol levels and kidney problems. Remember that the consumption rate for an adult is 3 eggs per day.

Oil for frying can be either butter or vegetable. If you care about your figure and the calorie content of an omelet is important to you, use sunflower or olive oil. You can even use lard, but the omelette in this case will be a little “heavy” for the stomach.

As a frying pan, it is best to choose a cast iron frying pan with a thick bottom. Non-stick pans work well. The main condition is that the dishes must be clean and dry.

The biggest problem housewives face when preparing an omelet is the difficulty of turning it over. There is a simple way of double-sided frying:

1. After the omelette is well cooked on one side, take a flat, wide lid and cover the frying pan with it. Turn the dish over so that the egg mixture remains on the lid.
2. Return the pan to the heat. Remove the omelet from the lid, raw side down. It is better to use a ceramic or glass lid.
3. Add a little grated cheese to the milk-egg mixture. Thanks to it, the mixture will become denser and will not fall apart when turned over.
