What You'll Need (serves 2-3):
- Large, non-stick frying pan
- Large mixing bowl
- 1 small yellow onion
- 1/2 large red pepper
- 1/4 head broccoli
- 3 reduced fat ham, pre-cooked ham (or chicken) slices
- 4 medium-sized eggs
What You'll Do:
- Dice your small onion (here is a link to how I do it)
- Water sautee your onion (Cover your diced onions in water, not all the way, but just enough so they have enough to gently boil in. Let them boil until almost transparent and soft. This technique is a very helpful trick on the Dukan diet. We are used to sauteing onions in butter or oils, but with water you get none of the fat and all of the taste! To be honest, heck yeah I miss the taste of butter sauteed onions...but my butt doesn't)
- Finely chop your red pepper, broccoli and ham slices
- In a large bowl toss in your chopped vegetables and ham
- Crack your eggs into the same bowl
- Mix thoroughly until frothy
- Turn your stove top onto its lowest setting and place your non-stick pan on top
- Gently pour your egg mixture into the pan
- Let cook until the edges of the egg start to look cooked
- Using your large spatula, gently lift half of your omelette, placing it downwards and onto the top half of the other side. Your omelette now looks like a half circle
- Cook until the centre is no longer runny
- Remove from your pan and enjoy!
The STEWART SCORE:
Appearance: 2
Taste: 2
Ease: 1.5 (this 'flipping' of the omelette can be tricky if you try to flip too soon. If your omelette breaks, don't worry - it will still taste the same!)
