" Leftover Spaghetti Omelette"

Ingredients :

2 eggs

1 cup of 100-200 gms cooked spaghetti/pasta

2 tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves chopped

2 tbsp peas boiled

1 onion chopped

1 tomatoe chopped

few sprigs of coriander leaves chopped

salt to taste 

1 tsp pepper powder

Cheddar or Parmesan cheese - grated

2 green chillis slit ( optional)

Preparation:

• Heat oil in a pan and saute garlic till you get the aroma. Add onion and cook well till soft and pink
• Add tomatoes,green chillis and peas and cook for 2-3 minutes.Remove from heat & put the mixture in a large bowl
• Add coriander leaves, salt, pepper, little cheese, and spaghetti. Mix well. 
• Beat the eggs nicely and add to the above mixture and mix well.
• Heat a tbsp oil in the frying pan and pour the egg mixture. Level it out with a spoon to form an even omelette.
• Cook on medium heat for around 5 minutes till firm and cooked from bottom. 

Now you have three options to make this omelette as per your taste and style -

• You can cover the pan after putting the cheese and cook on slow flame for around 2 minutes till cooked from top and cheese melts. Slice and serve. This is if you like the omelette a little wet and soft. 
• Once the egg cooks from the bottom, slowly slide the omelette on a plate and place the pan on top and topple it to get it cooked from the other side. This way you will not break it while turning. Cook it from the other side for another two mins till crisp and firm. Remove on plate, garnish with grated cheese and serve. This is if you like your eggs well cooked.
• Last option is if you like it little grilled or crisp. Add cheese and after cooking it from the bottom for 5 minutes, transfer the pan to a hot grill for 2-3 minutes until golden and cheese melts. Cut into wedges and serve hot. If you cant use the same pan in the oven then transfer it to a baking tray ( greased with little butter) and bake till crisp and golden.

You can cook it in any of these styles and enjoy it. My fav is the second option as its simple, fast and yummy. You can also add blanched spinach, mushrooms, potatoes, etc in the omelette to make it more appetizing  If you already made spaghetti with vegetables then you can skip more veggies and just make it with ham and cheese for added flavours.
