Ingredients

12 large eggs
1 cup - 230ml Creme fraiche
3.5oz - 100g butter
14oz - 400g Gruyère cheese, grated
14oz - 400g white mushrooms, sliced medium
3 Spring onions (green) chopped
6 slices of smoked Ham
Salt and pepper
Rocket lettuce, dressed

Steps

Step 1
Preheat the oven broiler (grill) to high.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, crack a dozen whole eggs and whisk the eggs together with the cream fraiche until combined. (Don’t over whisk or it will foam)
Step 3
In a non-stick frying pan over a medium high heat, melt the butter. Add the mushrooms, toss a few times to coat them, then add the chopped spring onions, and sauté until mushrooms are nicely coloured, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Reduce the heat slightly, pour in the beaten egg mixture, then quickly, using a silicon spatula or wooden spoon, gently drag the egg mixture from the sides to the centre of pan in even strokes. Once you see folds, and the eggs are only half cooked, turn off the heat and season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Place the slices of ham on top followed by all the grated cheese.
Step 6
Place the omelette under the broiler (grill) for 4 to 5 minutes or until the sides are golden and puffed up.
Step 7
Serve directly in the pan, or transfer the omelette to a serving plate. Serve and eat immediately with a side of the dressed salad.
