His flavorful take on a traditional omelet will switch up your old morning routine. According to Chef Irani, omelets in India are cooked longer than the French style, with simple ingredients like chilies for a bright, fresh heat that will wake up your palate. Add tomato and cilantro for color as well as for acidity and a pinch of turmeric for a wonderful golden yellow color. Level Beginner Prep Time 5 minutes Cook Time 5 minutes Serves 1 Cook it With Our Classic Cast Iron Skillets Ingredients 2 eggs 1 green chili, chopped thin ¼ cup tomatoes, diced 2 tablespoons cilantro ⅛ teaspoon turmeric powder ½ teaspoon salt ½ tablespoon butter Directions Heat a Cast Iron Skillet over medium-low heat. Crack eggs into a bowl. Add salt and turmeric, beat well. When skillet is hot, add half of the butter and the chopped green chili. Fry the chili for a few seconds then add tomato. Add the remaining butter and then begin to pour in the egg. Mix the egg around a few times to incorporate the masala into the egg and, using a spatula, press the edges towards the middle while rotating and tilting the pan so that the omelet is evenly spread. Sprinkle the cilantro over the omelet and cook for a minute on medium heat. Flip the omelet over and fry the other side for 1 minute. Serve hot with toast or muska pav.
