Main Ingredients- 100g fresh spinach
- 5 fresh eggs
- 1/4 onion
- 1/4 bell pepper (using different colors makes it more visually appealing)
- 1/4 carrot
- 1/4 potato
Seasoning- 3 pinches of bamboo salt (or sea salt)
- 3 pinches of bamboo salt (or sea salt)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Wash the spinach, carrot, onion, bell pepper, and potato thoroughly and pat them dry. Finely mince all the vegetables. Mincing the vegetables finely will help the rolled omelet hold its shape without falling apart.
Step 2
Crack the 5 fresh eggs into a clean bowl.
Step 3
Add the prepared minced vegetables and 3 pinches of bamboo salt to the eggs to season. (You can also use sea salt instead of bamboo salt.)
Step 4
Gently mix the vegetables and egg mixture. For a pleasing texture, it’s good to leave some small pieces of egg white visible in the finished omelet, so avoid over-mixing. Use a whisk to gently combine.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick pan generously with olive oil over medium-low heat. (For stainless steel pans, preheating is crucial before adding oil. Sprinkle a little water into the pan; when the water droplets sizzle and evaporate quickly, add the oil and then the egg mixture. This prevents sticking.)
Step 6
Pour about one ladleful of the egg mixture into the heated pan, spreading it thinly. Don’t be alarmed if the omelet tears or breaks initially. Focus on gently rolling it from the edges as it begins to set, using chopsticks or a spatula, to form a shape.
Step 7
Push the cooked portion to one side of the pan, then pour a little more egg mixture into the empty space and repeat the rolling process. This technique creates a visually appealing rolled omelet with distinct layers. Be patient and roll slowly to maintain the shape.
Step 8
Once the omelet has a stable shape, reduce the heat to low and patiently continue rolling it, allowing all sides to cook until golden brown. Avoid flipping too frequently; let each side cook sufficiently before turning.
Step 9
When the rolled omelet is fully cooked, turn off the heat. Resist the urge to remove it from the pan immediately. Let it rest in the pan with residual heat for a while; this helps it firm up and hold its shape better, making it easier to slice.
Step 10
Slice the omelet into desired portions and serve. Your delicious spinach and vegetable rolled omelet, loved by both children and adults, is ready! It’s especially tender and flavorful when served warm.
