Egg White Omelet With Parmesan And Tarragon Recipes

Steps:

• Heat butter or oil in a small nonstick skillet over low heat. Meanwhile, whisk together egg whites and salt, incorporating a lot of air, which will ensure that the omelet is light and fluffy. Be sure not to do this in advance or the egg whites will deflate.
• Place your hand directly above the skillet. When your palm feels warm, the skillet is ready to start cooking. Working quickly, pour whisked eggs into the heated skillet. While shaking skillet back and forth over heat, stir with a heatproof rubber spatula for less than 1 minute. You want to keep eggs moving, incorporating any runny parts and some curds begin to form.
• Continue cooking, making sure eggs cover the entire surface of the skillet and using a spatula to push together any holes that may have formed. Top with one or more desired fillings.
• Run the spatula along right side of omelet to loosen eggs from skillet. Place spatula under right side of eggs, making sure that the spatula is well underneath the eggs to offer maximum support, and lift right side over left in one fluid motion. Folded omelet should look like a half-moon.
• Lightly press down on omelet with the spatula to seal omelet together. Do not press hard; you do not want to flatten the curds. Check to make sure the handle of the skillet is still facing directly out toward you.
• Lift up skillet with one hand, and hold a plate with your other hand. Tilt skillet, and let the curved edge of the omelet slide onto the plate.

Steps:

• Prepare the egg whites: In a bowl, whisk the egg whites with the salt and a pinch of pepper. Whisk only enough to integrate the eggs. You don't want to whip too much air into them or make them frothy.
• Cook the omelet: Place a 6-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Swirl the butter around as it melts so it coats the whole surface of the pan. When the butter is melted (but not browned), reduce the heat and pour in the egg whites. Use a fork to stir the eggs slightly, as if you were scrambling them. Then allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the tarragon and cheese over the eggs, and then squeeze a little juice from the lemon wedge over the top.
• Finish: Lift the handle of the pan up, tilting the pan away from you and toward the heat. Fold the edge of the omelet closest to you toward the center. Fold the other edge toward the center and tilt the pan over the center of a plate so it lands seam-side down. Butter the omelet, if desired. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together egg whites and 1 tablespoon water; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• In a medium nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add spinach, and season with salt and pepper; cook until wilted and tender, 1 minute. Add egg whites; cook until nearly set, using a flexible heatproof spatula to pull sides of omelet toward center as uncooked egg whites run underneath, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Dollop cottage cheese on top of omelet, sprinkle with Parmesan, and season with salt and pepper. Gently slide omelet onto a serving plate, folding it over on itself by tipping skillet slightly.

Steps:

• Spray a 9x5-inch glass or microwave-safe loaf pan with cooking spray; sprinkle the onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms into the pan, and toss lightly with a fork just to mix. Season with salt and black pepper, and pour in the egg whites.
• Cook in a microwave oven on High setting for 3 minutes. Remove and stir the cooked egg white from the side of the pan into the rest of the ingredients; cook for 3 more minutes on High. If the omelet is still a little runny on top, slice it into chunks and turn them over in the loaf pan; microwave for 30 more seconds on High. Adjust salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Put the zucchini onto a double layer of paper towels. Cover with another double layer of paper towels and press out the excess moisture. Coat a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. Add the drained zucchini, onion, and mushrooms to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and soft, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the tomatoes and Parmesan and place the mixture into a small bowl. Wipe the nonstick pan clean, coat again with cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat. When the pan is good and hot, add the 3 egg whites and turn the skillet to evenly coat the bottom. When just about set, add the vegetable mixture to one side of the omelet. Gently fold the other side over the vegetables to form a half moon. Carefully slide the omelet onto a heated plate. Serve immediately with a sprinkling of fresh black pepper and the parsley, if using.

Steps:

• Crack eggs into a mixing bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon water. Whisk together until just beaten (do not overmix).
• Drizzle olive oil into 8-inch nonstick skillet. Brush evenly over the bottom of the pan. Evenly grate cheese into the skillet approximately 1/2-inch deep (or just shy of 1 ounce).
• Place pan over medium-high heat. Cheese will slowly start to melt. When cheese starts to bubble and turn golden brown, about 4 minutes, pour eggs evenly over cheese. Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Cover and let eggs cook on low until they are set, checking after the first 30 seconds. For 2 eggs, this should take about 1 minute, total cooking time. Remove pan from heat. Carefully use a spatula to fold "parmalet" in half. Transfer to serving plate.

Steps:

• Beat the egg whites until foamy on top. Beat in half of the herbs and season with salt.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat until very hot. Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the skillet. When very hot, add the egg mixture, swirling the pan to spread it in an even, thin layer.
• Cook until crisp and golden brown on the bottom, about 1 minute. Sprinkle the remaining herbs over, then remove from the heat and immediately use 2 spatulas to fold the omelet in half while tilting the skillet. (It's okay if the whites aren't totally set; the residual heat will cook them.)
• Slide onto a serving plate and drizzle with a little olive oil. Grind pepper over and grate the zest of a quarter of the lemon directly over the omelet. Garnish with herbs. Cut in half to share. Serve immediately, with hot sauce, if you like.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the egg yolks, garlic and tarragon, and season. Stir in the smoked salmon.
• In a seperate bowl, whiskthe egg whites until they form soft peaks, then fold into the egg yolk mixture.
• Heat the olive oil in a 20cm non-stick frying pan and pour in the egg mixture. Cook gently over a low to medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden brown underneath. You can check how brown the omlette is by gently lifting the edge with a knife.
• Preheat the grill to medium. Sprikle the parmesan over the omelette and pop under the grill for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and set. Slide onto a plate and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, herbs, salt and pepper in medium bowl to blend. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in 9- to 10-inch-diameter nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add half of egg mixture to skillet and cook until very softly set, tilting skillet, running rubber spatula around edges and allowing uncooked egg portion to flow underneath, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle half of goat cheese over. Cover and cook until omelet is set, about 2 minutes. Tilt skillet and slide out omelet onto plate, folding omelet in half. Cover to keep warm. Repeat for second omelet with remaining butter, egg mixture and goat cheese. Serve immediately.
