Egg Omelette for Breakfast

An omelette or omelet is a dish made from beaten eggs quickly cooked with butter or oil in a frying pan, sometimes folded around a filling such as cheese, vegetables, meat (often ham), or some combination of the above. Omelettes may be only partially cooked on the top side and not flipped, even prior to folding.

Here in the Philippines, we do sometimes call it Scrambled egg.  It's one of my favorite dish not just for breakfast but also for lunch or dinner.  I always eat it with rice or bread.  Countless fillings such as onions, garlic, tomatoes, corned beef, potatoes, peppers or any possibly leftovers like ground, chopped or shredded pork and beef are used.  I prefer spring onions and tomatoes or sometimes potatoes.  Try it!  



2 eggs
spring onions, finely chopped
tomato, finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste
oil to fry


1.  Beat the eggs. 

2.  Add salt and pepper to taste.

3.  Heat oil in the frying pan and add the beaten eggs.  Cook over low heat till mixture is bit dry.

4.  Add the spring onions and tomatoes at the center.
5.  Then fold it...  flip it if you want to fry the other side or just leave as that if you want the top is partially cooked.

6.  Serve hot with plain or fried rice or bread.
