🧂 Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 medium Leeks(white and light green parts only, thinly sliced)
- 100 g Goat cheese(crumbled (preferably local Andorran goat cheese))
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- to taste Salt
- to taste Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives(chopped, for garnish (optional))
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper until well combined. Stir in the crumbled goat cheese and chopped chives (if using).
- 2
Clean the leeks thoroughly to remove any grit. Thinly slice the white and light green parts of the leeks.
- 3
Heat the butter and olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and sauté until softened and lightly golden, about 5-7 minutes. Do not let them burn.
- 4
Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the sautéed leeks in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
- 5
Gently lift the edges of the omelette with a spatula and tilt the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue cooking until the omelette is mostly set but still slightly moist on top.
- 6
Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula. Cook for another minute or two until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
- 7
Slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with extra chives if desired and serve immediately.
