1356. Arabic Bread Omelette


More of a technique than a recipe, this is an omelette topped while still not fully cooked in the pan with cheese and a pita bread, then flipped to crisp the pita bread, melt the cheese, and cook the remainder of the egg.
So instead of serving the egg and bread as separate components, they are served as one, with the added benefit of crisp pita. Serve with a steaming mug of sweet mint tea.


Ingredients:

2 eggs
1/3 cup cheese
1 small Arab pita bread
salt & pepper


Method:

Whisk the eggs in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
Hear a tablespoon of oil in a dessert-plate-sized pan set over medium heat. Pour in the eggs once the oil is shimmering and swirl.
When the egg is cooked all around the sides but not yet fully cooked over the top, place your cheese and pita bread over the omelette.
Allow to cook for about a minute more then flip and let cook about 3 minutes more. Medium heat is crucial as high heat will burn some parts and under-cook other parts.
When cooked and  crisped to liking, serve immediately with a steaming mug of sweet mint tea.

صحة و عافية
