Avocado Omelette

I've been making omelettes with different kinds of veggies and whatnot inside over the last couple weeks (inspired by Jamie Oliver's omelette recipe here on Cookpad). I wasn't sure how this would be with avocado, but it turned out super good!

Makes a big filling omelette for one person, or split it in half to share with someone if you're eating with some other side dishes.

The avocado filling is like a simple guacamole. You can play with the mix-ins to create your own customized version :)

Cooking Instructions

20 mins
  1. 1

    Halve the avocado, take out the seed and remove flesh into a small bowl. Cut into chunks with spoon or fork.

  2. 2

    Mix the diced onion, lemon/lime juice, and yogurt into the avocado. Break the chunks a little smaller while mixing. Salt & pepper to taste, then mix in leaves from the cilantro.

  3. 3

    Prepare the omelette by whisking the two eggs together in a medium bowl along with the milk and a bit of salt.

  4. 4

    Heat a medium frying pan on medium and add the olive oil. When the olive oil is hot, pour in the eggs.

  5. 5

    Tilt the pan so the eggs spread around in a circle. If it spreads to thing on the edges, bring it back toward the center with a spatula or spoon.

  6. 6

    When the eggs start to solidify somewhat but before they are full cooked through, spread on the avocado filling over half of the omelette.

  7. 7

    Fold over the other half of the omelette to cover the avocado filling. Let it cook another minute or two until the eggs in the center aren't so runny or until it's cooked to the doneness you like. I like mine a little "juicy" so all the egg isn't hard.

  8. 8

    Serve on a plate garnished with more cilantro or dill is nice too. Cut in half for two people :)
