Broccolini omelette

This was re-imagined from a café my boyfriend and I used to visit – we loved an omelette outside of dinner – always a brilliant choice when you want a quick meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 bunches broccolini
  • butter (for cooking hazelnuts)
  • ¼ cup hazelnuts
  • salt and black pepper
  • 6 free-range eggs
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) milk
  • oil, for cooking
  • cheese of choice
  • sourdough toast, to serve
  • ¼ cup basil leaves, to serve

Instructions

  1. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Cook the broccolini for 2 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Remove the broccolini to a large bowl of ice water to halt the cooking process. Drain, and set aside.
  2. Melt a small knob of butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the hazelnuts and toast for 3-4 minutes, or until lightly golden. Add the broccolini and toss in the buttery hazelnuts. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk.
  4. Heat a second large frying pan with a drizzle of oil. Add the eggs and allow to cook until the edges of the omelette begins to solidify. Add the broccolini hazelnut mixture with some cheese (if using). Serve with toasted sourdough and basil leaves.
