Masala omelette in frying pan with a bowl of tomato and cucumber salad on the side
Jump to Recipe

This masala omelette recipe appeared in the January 2019 Olive magazine.   David's the main omelette maker in our house...he has them down to a fine art!!   This omelette has delicious spices...turmeric is one of my favourites...along with ginger and chilli to give heat - leave the seeds in for more heat!! 

The tomato, cucumber and onion salad cuts through the heat and balances the dish perfectly.   It's a great breakfast or brunch recipe...or even enjoy it as a quick mid week meal, with some toast on the side, if you're hungry.

Tip

  • This masala omelette recipe is easily adapted if you're cooking for more people...just make sure you use a bigger frying pan.

Spanish

How to make this Masala Omelette

Ingredients

For the omelette:

  • 0.5 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 0.5 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 large plum tomato, finely chopped
  • 0.5 green chilli, deseeded (optional) and sliced
  • 0.5 a thumb sized piece of ginger, finely chopped
  • 0.25 tsp ground turmeric
  • 0.5 tsp garam masala
  • 4 eggs
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 0.5 a small bunch of coriander, finely chopped

For the salad:

  • 2 large ripe tomatoes, sliced
  • 0.25 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 0.5 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. To make the salad, put the tomatoes, cucumber, onion and vinegar into a serving bowl with some seasoning, toss well then set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan on a medium to low heat and gently cook the onion, tomato, chilli and ginger with a pinch of salt for 10 minutes until soft. Stir in the spices and cook for 1 minute. Beat the eggs with a little seasoning and stir through the coriander. Tip the eggs into the pan and swirl to make sure everything is distributed. Cook gently for 5 minutes, lifting up the edges to let any runny egg run underneath, until lightly golden on the bottom. Then, fold over and cook gently for 2 to 3 more minutes until just set.
  3. Cut in half and serve with the salad…and some toast, if you're hungry!
