Ingredients
- 12 eggs
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon 7 Spice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro finely chopped
- 4 green onions minced

- 8 teaspoons olive oil divided
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, flour, baking powder, 7 spice, salt and pepper until well combined. Fold in the cilantro, green onions and mint.
- Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Measure ½ cup of the omelette mixture and pour into the heated skillet. Cook until the eggs are set and golden brown, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

- Serve the Ejjeh immediately on its own or with yogurt and pita bread

Notes
- Storage: This omelette is best enjoyed fresh but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Tips: Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the egg mixture. Adding cold eggs may cause them to burn on the outside while remaining undercooked in the center.
