Step 21

Stage

Step 23

The top is almost cooked and when you shake the pan, the omelette mixture does not spread.

Step 25

Once the bottom of the omelet is cooked and the top side is firm, flip it over and cook the other side.

Step 27

If you are worried about the omelette breaking while you flip it around, don’t.

These can easily replace the need to cut them to the required size which would be the next step in the recipe instruction.

Repeat the above step with any remaining omelet mixture.

Step 33

Once you’ve made the omelette transfer it to a plate and slice them into fairly large pieces.

How to make the omelette curry gravy.Place a large pan that will hold the omelette pieces without crowding over medium heat and pour in the oil(4 tbsp).

Step 37

Add curry leaves(a sprig of 4-5 leaves, substitute with a bay leaf), ginger-garlic paste(1 tbsp, this is 1″ ginger piece and 3 cloves of garlic minced), onions(1 medium onion sliced).

Step 39

Cook over medium heat until the onions turn slightly golden.

Step 41

Add turmeric(1/4 tsp), curry powder(1 tbsp curry powder, any regular curry powder would do, I tend to change the curry powder sometimes with Jaffna curry powder just to change things a bit).

Step 43

Finally, add chili powder(1/2 tsp increase as per your need)and cook for a further 3 minutes.

Step 45

Once the spices are cooked, pour in the coconut milk.

Step 47

Season with salt and slow simmer over low heat for 3-5 minutes or until the gravy turns slightly darker and thick with the spices.

Step 49

Once the gravy is made, gently drop the omelette slices into the curry gravy without crowding them.

Step 51

Slow simmer for another 5 minutes until gravy slightly thickens. avoid using a spoon to move the omelette

Step 53

Instead, shake the pan around to submerge the omelet in the gravy.

Step 55

Serve the warm omelette curry with toasted bread or a bowl of rice.
