6 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon butter

1/2 cup diced bell peppers (any color)

1/2 cup diced tomatoes

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Execution

1

Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

2

Sauté the Veggies: In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add diced bell peppers and tomatoes. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the veggies are tender.

3

Pour the Egg Mixture: Pour the whisked egg mixture evenly over the sautéed veggies in the skillet.

4

Cook the Omelette: Allow the eggs to set slightly at the edges. Gently lift the edges with a spatula, tilting the skillet to let the uncooked egg flow underneath.

5

Add Cheese and Parsley: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese and chopped fresh parsley evenly over the omelette.

6

Roll the Omelette: Once the edges are set, carefully roll the omelette from one side to the other, creating a rolled log shape. Remove from heat.

7

Slice and Serve: Transfer the omelette roll to a cutting board. Slice it into rounds, and serve warm.

Additional tips

  • Customize the omelette roll with your favorite veggies, such as mushrooms, onions, or spinach.
  • Experiment with different cheese varieties for varied flavors.
  • Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a side of salsa for extra freshness.

4 English muffins, split and toasted

8 large eggs

200g smoked salmon slices

2 avocados, sliced

1 tablespoon white vinegar

Fresh dill for garnish

For the Hollandaise Sauce:

3 large egg yolks

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Salt and cayenne pepper to taste

Execution

1

Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce: In a heatproof bowl, whisk together egg yolks and lemon juice. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and whisk continuously until the mixture thickens.

2

Add Butter to Sauce: Gradually add melted butter to the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly until the sauce is smooth and thick. Season with salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Set aside.

3

Poach the Eggs: Fill a wide saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add white vinegar. Carefully crack each egg into a small bowl and slide it into the simmering water. Poach for 3-4 minutes for runny yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

4

Assemble the Dish: Place a slice of toasted English muffin on each plate. Top with slices of smoked salmon and avocado.

5

Add Poached Eggs: Gently place poached eggs on top of the salmon and avocado.

6

Pour Hollandaise Sauce: Spoon hollandaise sauce generously over each poached egg.

7

Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh dill and serve immediately.

Additional tips

  • For a shortcut, you can use store-bought hollandaise sauce, but preparing it from scratch adds an authentic touch.
  • Experiment with different types of smoked salmon for varied flavors, such as dill-infused or peppered varieties.
  • Ensure your eggs are as fresh as possible for the best poaching results.
  • If you prefer a non-traditional twist, consider adding a sprinkle of capers or a dash of hot sauce for extra zing.
  • Serve with a side of mixed greens or a light fruit salad to balance the richness of the dish.
