Omelet from The Bear
The Bear is a binge-worthy show that has amazing foodie scenes and recipes to try out. This one is worth the fuss
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon unsalted butter divided
- 2 tablespoons garlic-and-herb spreadable cheese
- Thinly sliced chives for serving
- Crushed ruffled sour cream and onion potato chips for serving
- Freshly ground black pepper and salt for serving
Instructions
- Set a mesh strainer inside a medium bowl. Crack the eggs into the strainer and whisk with a fork until they pass through the mesh. Set the strainer aside and whisk the salt into the eggs.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a pan, swirling to coat the bottom and sides of the pan.
- Add the eggs and, using a rubber spatula in one hand, constantly stir the eggs while gently jerking the pan back and forth with your other hand. Cook the eggs, continue to stir, and scrape down the sides of the pan with the spatula periodically. Once the eggs are mostly set yet still runny and wet on top, about 3 minutes total, smooth them evenly across the pan. Place dollops of cheese in a line across the upper third of the omelet.
- Tilt the pan and use the spatula to fold the top edge of the omelet over the cheese to the center; use the spatula and gravity to nudge the omelet to roll and fold over completely. Slide it onto a plate, seam side down, and rub the top of the omelet with the remaining 1 teaspoon of butter. Top with a sprinkling of chives, crushed potato chips and a couple grinds of black pepper, and serve.
