Ingredients
for the filling:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
- 5 oz (150g) chanterelle mushrooms
- 1 shallot or 1 small onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried or fresh
- salt and pepper to taste
for the omelette:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried or fresh
- 2 teaspoons heavy cream
- 1/2 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup (25g) grated Gruyere cheese, or Swiss cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
make the filling:
- Cut the mushrooms into smaller pieces - leave small mushrooms whole, cut medium mushrooms into 2 pieces and large into 3-5 pieces. Finely dice the shallot and finely chop garlic.
- Heat butter in a medium/large pan over high heat. Add the mushrooms in an even layer and don't stir for 1 minute.
- Add the onion, garlic, and thyme, reduce the heat to medium-low. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for a couple of minutes or until the onion is soft and the mushrooms are tender but still crunchy (not too soft and mushy).
- Transfer the mushroom filling to a plate.
cook the omelette:
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the cheese.
- Add the remaining 1/2 Tbsp of butter to the pan. Heat over medium-low heat until melted and hot.
- Pour in the egg mixture. Cook until almost set at the top (I like to cover my pan with a lid to speed it up, but it's not necessary).
- When the omelette is done, place the mushroom filling on one half of the omelet, fold the other half over.
- Transfer to a plate and enjoy!
Notes
- If you can't get chanterelle mushrooms where you live or they're out of season, you can use button mushrooms and make my fluffy mushroom omelet instead.
- Storage: You can reheat this omelet in a covered pan until warm. Keep it in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. It tastes best freshly prepared. If you want to make it ahead you could prepare the mushrooms and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days then cook the omelet just before serving.
- How to double the recipe: You can make just one omelet (which is 1 serving) at a time. If you want to double (or triple) the recipe, you can prepare more mushrooms. When you have your mushrooms, prepare the egg mixture, cook half of it, and stuff with the mushroom filling, then cook the second omelet.
- Calories = 1 serving (the whole recipe). This is only an estimate!
