Cooking features

How to choose the best omelet recipe in the oven, because there are many of them - for everyday, children's and diet menus? Everything is simple if you strictly follow simple rules.

  • Maintain proportions. The amount of liquid should correspond to the weight of the eggs. The easiest way to determine is to measure the liquid with eggshells. The ratio should be as follows: for 1 egg, a teaspoon of water or milk.
  • Use a fork. Beat the eggs with a fork. A few sweeping movements are enough to achieve results. Use the mixer in certain cases, for example, for omelet-soufflé.
  • Size matters. The narrower the baking dish, the higher the omelette will turn out in the oven. Fill out the form 1/3 full. During baking, the mixture doubles in size.
  • Correct temperature. Ideal temperature conditions for cooking in the oven are 160-200°. The dish bakes evenly and acquires a beautiful golden crust.
  • Never open the oven during cooking. Otherwise, you will not be able to cook a fluffy omelette in the oven without it falling over.
  • Add additional ingredients last. In this case, you will not damage the structure, and the finished dish will not lose its fluffiness.
  • Use parchment. To ensure that the omelet has a crust and is well baked in the middle, use parchment. Cover the pan with it before putting it in the oven. Remove the parchment after the dish has cooled slightly.
  • Without flour and starch. Do not use flour or starch when preparing an omelette in the oven, so as not to spoil the delicate taste and not to disrupt the airiness of the structure of the dish.

Cream will help you get a fluffy omelette. Replace milk with them. Sour cream will add a pleasant creamy taste. And baked milk will make the dish tender. Using olive oil instead of butter will reduce its calorie content and enrich it with vitamins.
