Ingredients
·
2 tomato
, halved
·
3 medium egg
·
1 tbsp snipped chive
·
300g chestnut mushroom, sliced
·
1 tsp unsalted butter
·
2 tbsp low-fat cream cheese
·
1 tbsp finely chopped basil leaves
Method
1.
Heat the grill to its highest setting and place the tomatoes on
a square of foil underneath, turning occasionally to prevent burning. When the
tomatoes are slightly scorched, remove from the grill, squashing them slightly
to release the juices.
2.
Break the eggs into a bowl and mix with a fork. Add a small
splash of water and mix. Add the chives and some black pepper, and beat some
more. Set aside while you prepare the mushrooms.
3.
In a non-stick frying pan, heat the butter over a medium heat
until foaming. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5-8 mins until tender, stirring
every few mins. Remove and set aside.
4.
Briskly stir the egg mixture, then add to the hot pan (tilting
it so that the mixture covers the entire base) and leave for 10 secs or so
until it begins to set. With a fork, gently stir the egg here and there so that
any unset mixture gets cooked.
5.
While the egg mixture is still slightly loose, spoon the
mushroom mix onto one side of the omelette, and top with the cream cheese and
basil leaves. Flip the other side of the omelette over to cover, if you like.
Leave to cook for 1 min more, then cut in half and slide each half onto a
plate. Serve immediately with the tomatoes on the side.
