Description

Imagine a light and vibrant omelet, perfect for a satisfying lunch or a simple supper. This omelet begins with a generous swirl of butter, melting into the pan and creating a rich, golden base for the other ingredients. Asparagus spears, tender and slightly sweet, are nestled within the buttery embrace, their delicate flavor complementing the richness of the eggs.

Thinly sliced radishes add a delightful crunch and a subtle peppery bite, awakening the palate with their fresh taste. A scattering of freshly chopped peppermint introduces a cool, aromatic note, its invigorating scent mingling with the savory aromas of the cooking omelet. A squeeze of lemon juice brightens the entire dish, adding a zesty tang that balances the richness and enhances the other flavors.

The beaten eggs, light and airy, are poured over the vegetables, creating a fluffy and golden canvas. As the omelet cooks, the eggs puff up, creating a soft and yielding texture. The vegetables soften slightly, their flavors melding together in a harmonious blend.

This omelet is a celebration of fresh, seasonal ingredients, offering a satisfying combination of textures and tastes. Enjoy it with a simple side – perhaps a light salad bursting with the flavors of summer, or a medley of steamed spring vegetables, glistening with melted butter. This versatile dish can be enjoyed hot, fresh from the pan, or chilled, making it a perfect option for a packed lunch or a light snack.

Its vibrant flavors and satisfying textures make it a delightful choice any time of day.

Instructions

    1.
    Trim the tough ends from the asparagus. Cut the asparagus into 2 inch pieces. Slice the radishes into 1/4 inch thick discs. Melt a heaped tablespoon of butter in a skillet over a medium heat. Add the sliced radishes and asparagus to the skillet. Pan-fry the vegetables for 5-6 minutes in the butter until just tender, turning halfway through.
    2.
    Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the grated parmesan, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Beat together well to combine.
    3.
    Roughly chop the fresh mint. Add the mint to the bowl with the beaten egg. Stir the mint through the eggs.
    4.
    Pour the beaten egg mixture over the tender asparagus and radishes and set over a medium heat. Allow the egg to settle and start cooking. Once the eggs starts to set around the edges, use a spatula to ease the omelet away from the side of the pan, allowing any uncooked egg to flow underneath. Cook until set on top and no liquid remains. Serve with your preferred Keto sides.
