Kleftiko Omelette

The Kleftiko Omelette brings the flavors of traditional Greek slow-cooked lamb into a fluffy and nutritious omelette, perfect for a healthy breakfast. Packed with vegetables and feta cheese, this dish offers a delightful balance of taste and nutrition.

Ingredients

• Eggs - 4 large
• Feta cheese - 100 grams, crumbled
• Spinach - 100 grams, fresh
• Tomato - 1 medium, diced
• Red onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Oregano - 1 teaspoon, dried
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Parsley - 1 tablespoon, chopped (for garnish)

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined. Season with salt, pepper, and oregano.
2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.
3. Add the diced tomato and spinach to the skillet, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
4. Pour the whisked eggs over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, gently lifting the edges with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
5. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is slightly melted.
6. Once cooked, carefully slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
