As Julia Child said ...
"Cooking is like love; it should be entered into with abandon or not at all."
"You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces - just good food from fresh ingredients."
Cooking through our 100 day journey doesn't necessarily mean dinner meals. Fresh and simple is the way to go today. As a working mother, flexibility is needed if Talia and I are going to make it through our mission. Tonight I have to do my 'principal' duties by attending a Presentation Night at the local high school. Unfortunately, that means I won't be home to cook dinner.Hence, Day 2's recipe is the perfect omelette from Julia Child.
- Toss 2 eggs in a bowl and beat into it salt and pepper and add one tsp of water.
- Pour the mixture into your non-stick pan that has been heated with 1 tsp of butter over high heat.
- Swirl swirl flip!
- Add a bit of butter and parsley for garnish. Enjoy!
Despite her initial reluctance, Talia really enjoyed making the omelette. She was very surprised at how 'light' it was. "It looks like a crepe", she said. And she liked how it tasted. Thought next time she says she wants to add cheese .... Thanks Julia Child for a lovely recipe. By the way, I added 1 tablespoon of water instead of a teaspoon. Made it lighter.

ReplyDeleteI found that the omelette was light and fluffy ... and a good way to add flavour would be to add a sprinkle of salt or soya sauce. It is quick, easy and simple. An easy recipe for everyone to enjoy.
