How to cook an omelette with cauliflower - step-by-step recipe with photos

Let's immediately lay out all the ingredients, wash them, in a word, prepare them so as not to be distracted during the process. After all, everything will have to be done one by one and quickly. So, let's start with cauliflower. Let's wash it. Divide into umbrellas. True, I went further and divided it into smaller parts. The omelette will then be more tender.


Step 1: Cauliflower

Immediately pour some water into the saucepan and put it on the fire. And let's cut the carrots. I liked this format.


Step 2. Tweak the carrots

We wait until the lightly salted water boils so that we can cook the cabbage and carrots for just a few minutes. And let's do further cutting. I had bell peppers of all colors. It is so beautiful! We can set it up in any format.


Step 3. Pepper slices

Cabbage and carrots, if they have been boiling for two minutes, can be safely removed with a slotted spoon. Now you need to prepare the most delicate filling. To do this, beat two eggs into a bowl. And beat them well and pour in the milk.


Step 4. Egg-milk mixture

Cheese... I understand that you can grate it more. He puts all these components together so well! We will rub in any format. And pour it into a bowl with the mixture.


Step 5. Add grated cheese

Mix all these three components very well! To make it even tastier and more aromatic, let’s season this mixture with something that you really love. I had a mixture of salt and my favorite Italian herbs.


Step 6. Filling with spices
Step 7. Chop the greens

Mix all the ingredients. Let the frying pan heat up and add oil. Let's put vegetables in it.


Step 8. Vegetables in a frying pan

And here it comes important point. After all, we don’t just have a liquid mass – there’s so much in it! To calculate it correctly, that is, so that it covers the entire volume of vegetables, spread the filling with a large spoon. We try to distribute it as evenly as possible!


Step 9. Distribute the filling evenly among the vegetables.

Having spread out the filling, you can flavor our future omelette with something one more time. You will later be convinced that this is the right step. We hardly added any salt to the dish!


Step 10. Sprinkle with spices again

That's all. All that remains is to adjust the stove. After all, a strong fire will damage the omelette, and a weak one will simply ruin it. Let's cover with a lid and... don't time it, but don't leave even for a second!


Step 11. Covered omelet

Why shouldn’t you time it, why shouldn’t you leave when everything is cooking over low heat? But because the omelette will be cooked literally before your eyes, and in almost a few minutes! Do you see how he got up? Slice while it's hot!


Step 12. The omelet is ready. Bon appetit!

Greetings, friends!

I wanted something tasty and satisfying. And for the selection we selected the simplest options with chicken. What else can you eat in winter, when there is a minimum of fresh food, but you want hearty and simple dishes?

Chicken meat is considered an ideal option. It is dietary and does not break the bank. But it’s better to take farm meat. Firstly, such chickens are raised on grain feeding. Secondly, they are not stuffed with hormones, which can have a bad effect on the body.

I tried to select the simplest of common products for the recipes. These snacks can be prepared every day. But they are also suitable for festive table. In any case, it wouldn’t hurt to have a couple of interesting salad options in every housewife’s collection.

Very tasty with mushrooms and pineapple

We need:

  • Boiled chicken fillet - 300 gr.;
  • Mushrooms fried with onions - 200-250 gr.;
  • Hard cheese - 200 gr.;
  • Chicken eggs - 6 pcs.;
  • Mayonnaise - 200 gr.;
  • Salt and pepper - to taste.

Preparation:

1. Let's prepare food. Cook the chicken separately until soft. Boil the mushrooms in salty water for 20-25 minutes. Then fry them in a frying pan with onions.

For the dish, it is better to take the champignon mushroom variety. They do not have such a pronounced forest aroma as, for example, forest ones. And they will go great with pineapples.

We also need a large flat plate. We will place the snack on it in layers.

2. Break the chicken meat into small pieces and place in a flat layer on a large dish. Place mayonnaise on top and spread it over the entire chicken with a spoon.

3. Drain the excess vegetable oil from the mushrooms, otherwise it will turn out very greasy. We also layer them on top.

4. If you bought pineapples in the form of pucks, then cut them into cubes. Sometimes canned fruit can be taken directly in cubes. This option is even the best, because you don’t have to chop the pineapple.

5. Sprinkle the fruit on top of the layer of stewed mushrooms.

6. Spread with mayonnaise. Now you can add pepper and salt.

7. Remove the shell from hard-boiled eggs. Grind them on a grater and put them on top of the pineapple layer.

8. Coat with mayonnaise again. Rub the cheese on top with a final touch. The top can be decorated with pieces of pineapple and sprigs of fresh herbs.

9. Place the handsome man in the refrigerator for a couple of hours to soak in the sauce. And then you can eat.

Bon appetit to you!

You can make your own salad ring. Just take a 1.5-liter bottle and cut it off exactly at both ends. It is better to make the cylinder 12-15 cm in length.

4. Place the appetizer in layers. First comes sausage cheese. Pour a little mayonnaise on it. The sauce can be applied in the form of a cell and then spread a little with a spoon.

You can pepper the mayonnaise layers to your taste.

We try not to put too much sauce. This way the dish is guaranteed to be juicy, tasty and not greasy.

Repeat again the layer of grated cheese, mayonnaise, chicken, pineapple. Usually two layers are enough. Carefully remove the salad ring if you made the dish in it.

You can leave it in a bowl and serve it with a spatula. For decoration we use sprigs of parsley, dill or cilantro.
