How to make Soufflé Omelet

Try a different twist on your regular omelet. Granted, it might take you more time, but it’s fun to do and watch and the taste is something you’ll have to try for yourself.

Here is what you will need

2 eggs

½ teaspoon sugar

Salt and pepper to taste

2 dabs of butter

The ingredients are few and something you will find at home any day of the week. You can see why this is a good idea. It will take somewhere around 30 – 40 minutes inclusive of preparation time, unless of course you have an electric hand mixer, then it would save you the trouble and take you only around 15 minutes.

Instructions.

Take two separate bowls
Crack open your eggs and separate the yolks and the whites. Put the whites in one bowl and the yolks in the other
Take the bowl with the whites and drop in the ½ teaspoon of sugar.
Grab your whisk and start whisking good. Whisk until the egg whites seem creamy and form stiff peaks
Take your bowl of yolks and put in salt and pepper to your liking
Mix in your egg whites with the seasoned yolks. Make sure to fold the whites in and not to over mix. We want the mixture to be airy.
Set your stove on low heat and oil your pan
Pour in your mixture and cover with lid. Make sure the heat is low; we do not want to burn the omelet.
Check after about 3-4 minutes. The omelet will have fluffed up. Take a spatula and see if the omelet has started to set under. Slide in a dab of butter under the omelet.
Do the same on the opposite side. So that is two dabs of butter on either sides of the omelet. This will give the omelet more flavor.
Check a minute or two after you put in the butter
Grab a plate and fold the omelet over only on the plate
Garnish with chopped up coriander

The recipe is simple and worth trying. Go ahead and make a soufflé omelet.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

The Leaving vs The Left Behind

I still remember, I was standing near the entrance looking out at the garden. I was at my best friend’s home and she had gone to get her ever famous chips chilly for me. I was to leave for Bangalore again, in a couple of days. While I waited, I looked out at the garden and this thought came into my head. “Who is it harder for? The one leaving or the ones left behind?” Is it going to be harder for me in a new place readjusting and exploring, or my best friend here, who will me miss me? Is it harder for a person to settle in a completely new place with a completely new lifestyle and have to find new people or for a person to see the same old places, the same old alleys and reminiscent the good times they had with their friend who are not around at the moment? It was a random thought that filled my mind a couple of minutes and then I got over it. Some time after resettling here in Bangalore, my best friend sent me a reel. The reel was about 2 close friends who used to lived ...

Most Asked Question

Coming back home after one year has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me the past month. Getting to see everyone again, embracing family and friends, working on an office desk again, walking through same old alleys and of course, devouring delicious food that I so dearly missed. I am actually almost through the food list that I have been saving. But the people have been asking me the same question a lot: do you like it here in Nepal or in Bangalore? And the answer has always been the same for me: I like it wherever I am. Kathmandu is home, it is warm, and it is where family is. Bangalore is a different vibe and freedom and excitement. Kathmandu is a different fun and Bangalore is different fun, which is why I live in the moment and enjoy where I am. My mother always tells me: “ La wani tha nya wani ma” in Nepal Bhasa meaning “ the fish must go where the water goes”. The meaning while very basic is also very deep. If the fish does not flow with the water, it cannot survive. I...
