The story behind the recipe:
The omelette has a long history, being a versatile dish appreciated over time for its simplicity and richness. Its origins are lost in the mists of time, and today it has evolved into numerous variants, adapted to local tastes and ingredients. In this recipe, the layered omelette pays homage to tradition by combining simple ingredients to create a sophisticated and tasty breakfast.
Step by step:
1. Preparing the omelettes:
Start by cracking the 6 eggs into a bowl. Add salt and chili to taste, then beat them vigorously with a whisk or fork until they become a smooth foam. Add the finely chopped fresh dill, which will give a fresh aroma to the dish.
2. Baking the omelettes:
Heat a non-stick skillet, greasing it with a little oil to prevent sticking. Pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet and cover with a lid. Cook on low heat for 3-4 minutes, until the omelette is browned and well-cooked. Repeat the process for the other half of the mixture.
3. Preparing the cream cheese:
In a separate bowl, combine the Ceva FIN Creamy cream cheese with the chopped dill and the diced red bell pepper. Mix well so that the flavors blend perfectly.
4. Assembling the layered omelette:
After you have obtained the two omelettes, place the first omelette on a platter. Sprinkle cheese cubes, then add the slices of Prague ham (if desired, you can use 4 slices, but be careful not to overlap too much). Spread the cream cheese evenly over the ham, add more cheese cubes, and sprinkle a little dill.
5. Finishing the dish:
Place the second omelette on top and garnish with dill, bell pepper, and cheese. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and bake the omelette for 5-10 minutes, just enough for the cheese to melt and become deliciously soft.
6. Serving:
Remove the omelette from the oven and let it cool slightly. Cut it into generous portions and serve warm. You can accompany this dish with a fresh salad or a slice of toasted bread to complete the culinary experience.
Useful tips:
- Vegetarian option: You can replace the Prague ham with sautéed mushrooms or fried zucchini slices for a savory vegetarian option.
- Fresh ingredients: Use fresh eggs and herbs to achieve an intense flavor. Dill and red bell pepper are the most suitable for adding aroma.
- Customization: Add other ingredients to your liking, such as green onions, cherry tomatoes, or even olives to give a unique touch to your omelette.
