It will make a perfect couple breakfast and kids love it as well. Totally Mia approved!
We are having an eating crisis over here lately and this is one of the reasons why I experiment with omelettes. A serious crisis. My 5 year old used to eat everything and now she eats almost nothing. There is even a long lasting discussion about pasta, so you can imagine the level of the problem. This omelette worked and I am so grateful for this. It is sweet you may say, but sweet does not always work. As I mentioned, this is not a regular crisis. I miss the times when my only problem was to find a new interesting recipe for our breakfast. Nowadays it has to be Mia approved as well…
What is so special about this omelette? Twaróg! Each country is proud of its specialities and I am proud of our Polish twaróg also known as a white cheese. It is creamy, delicious and nowhere else tastes as good. Childhood memories are included in the flavour, obviously. If you ever have a chance to try one made in Międzybórz, do it. It is not an advertisement, I just think it is the best.
This omelette reminds me of an Austrian omelette I made years ago. Somehow, this recipe makes me also think of our time in Amsterdam. It’s been over 10 years ago… We have a tendency to concentrate on “now” but somehow the next day is 10 years later…
Recipe
You will need (for 2 people):
- 250g twaróg (polish white cheese) or cottage cheese
- 2 eggs, separate whites from yolks
- pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tbsp butter for frying
- powdered sugar for serving
- fresh mint for serving
Separate yolks from whites. Whip whites so they are stiff.
Place twaróg, egg yolks, salt, sugar, flour and milk in a bowl and combine. Add the whites and combine slowly. You do not want to over mix it.
Heat a frying pan to a medium heat and melt the butter.
Pour the dough on a pan and fry for a few minutes, so the bottom is nicely gold. Now the hard part comes as you need to flip it. Don’t worry if it breaks, as most probably it will. Later you will break it anyway.
Fry on the other side until it is golden and then move on a plate, cut in small pieces and serve with a sugar and mint.
Enjoy, Marta
