Veggie Omelette (Tortilla)

Eggs are one of the eatables that one can have in any form, sweet or savory. And at any time like breakfast; Omelettes, half fry, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs etc. Or lunch or dinner like Egg curry, Egg fried rice, salads or in sweets like cakes, cookies. etc. They are one of the widely consumed food product in the world. They are high in protein & calcium.


Omelette is basically a dish that is made with beaten egg, mostly cooked in heated oil in a frying pan. It is of different forms like, it can be simple, or can be folded around some cheese, meat or vegetables or some combination of these. To obtain a fluffy texture, the egg is beaten with milk, cream or sometimes water. The water vapors trapped with in the rapidly cooked egg gives it a bubbly appearance. Some people even add baking powder to give it a more fluffier appearance but I personally dislike it :/
