Ingredients
- 2 farm fresh Conestoga eggs
- A good size handful of mixed wild mushrooms roughly chopped I used equal parts, cremini, shitake and enoki. When you are buying your mushrooms, see what is nice and fresh for this recipe
- 50 gr grated good quality Canadian white cheddar
- 1 shallot finely chopped
- A few drizzles of olive oil
- 3 tbsp of grass-fed salted butter
- Tiny handful of finely chopped chives
- Salt and pepper
- Toasted focaccia bread optional
Instructions
- Crack and beat the eggs in a mixing bowl and whisk until the yolks and whites are evenly incorporated
- Add salt and pepper to the egg mixture, then put to the side
- In a medium sized non stick pan, warm and melt 1/2 of the butter and add the olive oil and set to medium high heat
- Add shallots and cook for about 2 minutes or until softened
- Add mixed mushrooms and season with salt and pepper and gently incorporate into shallots
- Cook for another 3-4 minutes or so. The mushrooms should be soft and roasted on all sides
- Once mushrooms are cooked, put them on a small plate and put to the side.
- In the same medium sized non stick pan, set to medium heat and add remaining butter and melt coating the entire surface area of the pan.
- Add egg mixture to the pan and tilt it to spread the eggs evenly
- While cooking, gently lift the edges to let the uncooked eggs run under. (This will give you a nice and even surface area of cooked eggs
- Once the sides are cooked (around 2-3 minutes) add mushrooms on half of the omelette and top with grated cheddar and garnish with chives
- Lift the omelette by sliding a spatula under the opposite side and fold over gently covering the mushrooms and cheese
- Turn off heat but let the omelette rest in the pan for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese melts. Enjoy with toasted focaccia if you like.
