Omelette Recipes- A simple omelette with toasted bread makes for the best breakfast, don't you agree? Omelette is a French word that came into use during the mid-16th century. Ever since, it has travelled and been adapted into various versions across the world. A French omelette is cooked briskly in an extremely hot pan, sprinkled with just salt and pepper or sometimes flavoured with tomatoes and finely chopped herbs. While the Spanish omelette is a classic dish famous with kids - stuffed with potatoes and pan-fried. In the United Kingdom, omelettes are traditionally made with cheese, milk and eggs and often cooked on one side. And in India, the famous masala omelette is made by whisking finely chopped green chillies, onions, coriander, cumin and a pinch of turmeric with the eggs before frying it on the tawa.
