Omelet with zucchini

OMELET WITH ZUCCHINI

Ingredients

500 g medium zucchini

4 large eggs

90 g. of olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Use a nonstick pan 22 cm in diameter.
Put the oil into the pan and place it over medium heat.
Wash the zucchini.

Cut both ends from each zucchini and toss them.

Cut each zucchini in thin slices and put them in the pan.

Let them cook from one side until they take light brown color and then turn them on the other side.
When they are well cooked on both sides, it’s time to put the eggs.

Break the eggs into a bowl beat them with a whisk.

Pour the eggs over the zucchini.

Lower even further the heat.

Give to the eggs the time they need to clot.

Cover the omelet with a flat lid and let it simmer.

Turn the pan upside down on the cover and the omelet drops on it.

Sometimes you will turn the omelet without breaking it.

In that case put it on the pan and let it cook on the other side.

Other times the omelet breaks as it falls.

In that case turn with a spatula one by one all the pieces in the pan.

Let them cook well and on that side.

Turn off the heat and leave the omelet on.
After 5 minutes remove it from the pan and leave it aside to cool slightly before serving.

If you want, you can mix potatoes with zucchini and make a mixed omelet of potatoes and zucchini.
