Main Ingredients

10 large eggs
500 milliliters (2 cups) of milk
1 large pinch of salt

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Ingredients

Start by gathering your ingredients: 10 large eggs, 500 milliliters (2 cups) of milk, and a large pinch of salt. Make sure to use fresh eggs for the best flavor. Don't forget to have 20 grams (1.5 tablespoons) of butter ready for greasing your baking dish.

Step 2

Mix the Egg Mixture

In a large mixing bowl, crack the 10 eggs and season them with salt. Pour in the 500 milliliters (2 cups) of milk. Blend the mixture well until it is fully combined and slightly frothy. A handheld or stand blender works perfectly for this step.

Step 3

Prepare the Baking Dish

Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius (375 degrees Fahrenheit). Next, take the butter and use it to grease your baking dish. This will prevent the omelette from sticking and ensure easy serving later.

Step 4

Bake the Omelette

Once the mixture is ready, carefully pour it into the greased baking dish. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the omelette has puffed up and is golden on the top. Keep an eye on it as baking times may vary.

Step 5

Serve and Enjoy

Once baked, remove the omelette from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve it warm with a side of green peas for a delicious touch. This fluffy baked omelette is great for breakfast or as a snack throughout the day. Enjoy your meal!

Servings

Once your omelet is baked to golden perfection, it's time to serve! A classic pairing would be to slice it up and enjoy it with crunchy buttered bread and a dollop of red caviar for that extra touch of luxury. 🥖🥂

If you want to take it to the next level, try serving your fluffy omelet with a side of steamed green peas. Their vibrant color and sweet flavor are not only nutritious, but they also add visual appeal to your breakfast spread. 🌱✨

For a cozy gathering, why not make it the star of your brunch table? Serve it alongside a fresh garden salad and a selection of cheeses — bringing a taste of your childhood to life while creating new memories. 🥗🧀

Faq

  • Can I use other types of milk?

    Absolutely! You can use almond milk, soy milk, or any other dairy-free milk; just ensure they are unsweetened for the best flavor balance.

  • How can I tell when the omelet is fully cooked?

    The omelet's surface should be set and slightly springy to the touch, and it should not jiggle when you shake the dish gently.

  • Can I add vegetables to the omelet?

    Definitely! Feel free to add your favorite sautéed vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition. Just make sure to chop them finely to allow for even cooking.

  • What if I want to store leftovers?

    Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should last 3-4 days, and you can reheat it in the oven or microwave.

  • I'm an experienced chef; how can I elevate this recipe?

    Consider incorporating fresh herbs or spices into your mixture before baking for a gourmet twist. A sprinkle of herbal seasoning or smoked paprika can add remarkable flavor!

  • Can I customize the texture of the omelet?

    For a fluffier texture, try beating the egg whites separately and folding them into the mixture just before baking. This adds extra air and lightness!
