Simple Omelette
Servings: 1-2
Difficulty: Easy
Author : Foodeva Marsay

INGREDIENTS
2 Extra Large Eggs
2 Mushrooms sliced (button mushroom variety)
2 Tablespoons Chopped Bell Peppers (any colour)
4 Tablespoon Grated Cheddar Cheese
3 Tablespoon Milk
1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder (dissolved in 1 Tablespoon Water OR Milk)
Butter
Salt
Pepper

METHOD
🍳 Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the salt and pepper to season
🍳 Add the Milk to this and whisk well.
🍳 Stir fry the chopped vegetables in a teaspoon or two of Butter and keep aside.
🍳 Now Add the dissolved baking powder to the whisked eggs, and stir in well.
🍳 To a seperate Pan (medium sized non-stick frying pan), melt 1 Tablespoon Butter on medium/low heat, and add the whisked eggs.
🍳Cover the Frying pan with a Lid, allow the eggs to start cooking.
🍳 Remove Lid after 1 minute, or as the eggs begin to “Puff Up”, now gently use a spoon to pull the eggs away from the sides of the pan and gently push any “runny egg mixture” to the edge allowing for those to cook as well.
🍳 Top one side of the cooked eggs with the stir fried vegetables.
🍳 Sprinkle on About 3 Tablespoons cheese and gently fold over, using a flat spoon/spatula, the other end of the eggs, so that it Encloses the fillings.
🍳 Switch off the heat, sprinkle on the rest of the Cheese, and cover the pan with the lid until cheese melts.
🍳 Best Enjoyed HOT, with a sprinkle of Fresh chopped Parsley.

NOTES by FOODEVA MARSAY
🔺 Any size of eggs may be used. Season with salt/pepper according to taste.
🔺 Add chopped cold meats/sausages/any other chopped vegetables, for more variety.
🔺 ALWAYS stir fry the toppings, as this brings them to a warmer temperature and leaves no “cold spots” when digging into an omelette😉
🔺 If you find it difficult to fold over an omelette, try adding the toppings to the center of cooked eggs, then flapping over either sides over toppings.
🔺 Another great way to serve the omelette (this I love to make when I’m in a hurry, has an almost “Pizza Like Omelette”look to it, is set the oven on grill function before staring the stove top preps, when done topping with all the fillings and cheese, simple slot the pan into the oven just until the cheese melts…YUMMMMM
🔺 Egg Whites work just as well with above recipe (MY FAVS😉)
🔺 For a less rushed morning, why not keep the topping ingredients already chopped in your fridge👍
ENJOY!!!

Peanut Butter and Caramel Cake

Decadence in every bite, I'm sure!!! This recipe was tried and tested, and a huge Thank You to aunty Hamida and Faaiza for sharing on this recipe and pic:-)

Recipe courtesy Yuppiechef)- Kindly Shared on by Hamida and Faaiza

Ingredients:

Prep time: 30 mins | Cook time : 25 mins | Makes 1 large cake

For the cake
6 extra large eggs
450g castor sugar
300ml milk
150g butter
2 Tbsp peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
350g cake flour
1 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder

For the salted caramel
1 tin caramel treat
1 tsp flaked sea salt

For the peanut butter icing
1 heaped Tbsp peanut butter
250g Lancewood or Woolworths cream cheese (these have a firmer texture than other brands)
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 Tbsp (60g) icing sugar
80ml sour cream

Peanut brittle, chocolate covered peanuts, etc., to decorate

Method:

1. To make the cake, preheat the oven to 180°C.

2. Line and grease 3 round cake tins (18cm or 20cm will work well for this type of layered cake).

3. Beat the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy.

4. Heat the milk and butter until the butter has just melted, remove from the heat and add the peanut butter and vanilla.

5. Mix the flour, salt and baking powder together.

6. Fold the flour mixture into the beaten eggs and sugar mixture, alternately adding some of the hot peanut butter milk mixture. Make sure not to make the mixture too dry by adding too much flour at a time.

7. Spoon equal amounts of the batter into each of your three cake tins. Place in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and springy to the touch. (Don’t be tempted to take the cake out of the oven before the time is up. The cake will brown a fair bit due to high sugar content, but still needs the allotted time to cook through properly.) Remove and leave to cool completely.

8. To make the peanut butter icing, beat the peanut butter and cream cheese together until soft.

9. Add the vanilla and icing sugar, mix together, then add in the sour cream and beat well.

10. For the salted caramel, stir the sea salt through the caramel in a separate bowl.

11. Layer the cake with caramel and icing between layers.
