Spinach Omelet


Hi everyone! Here is another omelet recipe for you. I like to use seasonal vegetables and fruits in my diet and now that spring has come, spinach is in abundance in Armenia. You can find fresh, vibrant green spinach bunches everywhere in farmers' markets and supermarkets. Spinach omelet is one of my favorite omelet recipes. It is not only delicious but it also has a high nourishing value. Among the world's healthiest vegetables spinach is at the top of ranking list for nutrient richness. It is rich in vitamins and minerals and antioxidants.
Here is the picture of the ready product!!! Looks lovely, don't you think so?!!! :) :) :) 



Now let's talk about the recipe! Here are the ingredients for the spinach omelet:

  • spinach (2 big bunches)
  • medium range 4 eggs 
  • vegetable oil (1 full tablespoon)
  • salt (to your taste)
  • black pepper (1/3 teaspoon)
  • paprika (1 teaspoon)
  • chili (I'm using just a pinch, you can use more if you want )

  • As you can see I have already thoroughly washed the spinach and cut it in big chunks. When we steam this huge bowl of spinach it'll become much less, I promise :) 
  • Take a big pan, put it on a medium heat, drizzle it with vegetable oil and add the spinach leafs. Cover the pan with a lid and let it steam for about 8-10 minutes.

  • When the spinach is already half cooked season it with salt, paprika and chili. Stir the spinach and let it steam for another couple of minutes. Meanwhile beat the eggs with a fork or a whisker with a pinch of salt.

  • Add the beaten eggs to the spinach and let it cook for 5 minutes. 
  • Let the omelet cool a little, then cut it into pieces and serve. Here is the picture of the ready product, my plate of spinach omelet with roasted potatoes as a side dish and a little bit of ketchup!!!

 I hope you enjoyed this omelet recipe! Have a nice day. Bye!!!
