My inner Dr Seuss fan gets excited at the mere thought of green eggs –even without the ham! I often make neon green spinach crêpes filled with Gruyère cheese and ham as a means to satisfy my needs but I do have a slightly lighter alternative in this super green omelette. This can easily become the vehicle for plenty of other ingredients of your choosing. Recipe from my new book Eat.Live.Go. which is available here.
1/4 cup of baby spinach
Large handful of chives
Large handful of flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup of milk
4 large free-range eggs
1 tbsp sunflower oil
1 1/2 cups sun blushed tomatoes
3/8 cup pine nuts, toasted
1 large ripe avocado
2/3 cup rindless goats’ cheese, crumbled
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
50g baby spinach
Large handful of chives
Large handful of flat-leaf parsley
75ml milk
4 large free-range eggs
1 tbsp sunflower oil
75g sun blushed tomatoes
50g pine nuts, toasted
1 large ripe avocado
100g rindless goats’ cheese, crumbled
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Food processor
Frying pan
This might come as a surprise to some people, but I found this recipe in an eighteenth-century manuscript, spelt ‘amulet’ (maybe it was considered lucky to eat it), and it is extremely good and filling. Recipe from The Pleasures of the Table: Rediscovering Theodora Fitzgibbon.
