I think I found this recipe in Bon Appetit a few yrs. ago when I was looking for something elegant for a brunch. Could certainly be served for breakfast. Whatever, they are very good and not too difficult. Hope someone enjoys them. Ingredients:
12 eggs |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
8 teaspoons butter (unsalted is better) |
6 ounces smoked salmon, sliced |
4 tablespoons chopped red onions |
4 teaspoons capers, drained |
8 tablespoons whipped cream cheese |
Directions:
1. Whisk eggs, salt and pepper in a large bowl to blend.
2. Melt 2 tsps. butter in an 8 inch nonstick skillet over a medium heat.
3. Ladle 3/4 cup egg mixture into skillet.
4. Cook until eggs are softly set, stirring often and lifting edges to allow uncooked portion to run under.
5. Place 1/4 of salmon on half of omelet.
6. Sprinkle with 1 tbls. onion and 1 teaspoons capers.
7. Top with 2 tbls. cream cheese.
8. Fold omelet in half and slide out onto plate.
9. Repeat with remaining butter, egg mixture, salmon, onion, capers and cream cheese to make 3 more omelets.
