I'm relunctant to share this gem with all of you. I ate this once in a "creperie" in old Quebec city. Once I arrived home I carefully recreated it. It's a hearty breakfast, great for serving at brunch. Believe me, you won't eat for 4 or 5 hours after eating this omelet, that's if you can finish the whole thing.

Country omelet

  • 4 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons of milk
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ½ small onion chopped
  • 4 to 5 mushrooms chopped
  • ¼ cup green pepper, chopped
  • 1 sausage, cooked and chopped in 1 inch pieces
  • 1 small potato, cooked, peeled and cubed in small pieces
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • Add oil to large frying pan. At medium heat cook onion, mushrooms, green pepper and garlic until onion is translucent. Add potato, sausage, spices and stir fry for 2 to 3 minutes, mixing frequently.

    In a small bowl combine eggs and milk and mix until well blended. Pour over mixture in frying pan and shake pan so that egg mixture is evenly distributed.

    Place cover on frying pan and lower heat to medium-low. Cook for 5 minutes. Add cheese and cook an additional 5 minutes.

    Fold omelet in half and serve immediately

    Can serve 2-3 people
