Soufflé Omelet with Balsamic Strawberries
Ingredients
- 1½ cups (about 8 ounces) fresh California strawberries, stemmed and quartered
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
- 1 tablespoon aged balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar, divided
- 2 large eggs, separated
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla
- 2 teaspoons butter
- Confectioners' sugar, as needed
- In bowl, combine strawberries, mint, vinegar and 1½ teaspoons of the granulated sugar; set aside.
- In small bowl, whisk egg yolks with vanilla and remaining ½ teaspoon granulated sugar for 1 minute or until slightly thickened.
- In bowl of electric mixer, beat egg whites until they form soft peaks. With rubber spatula, fold yolks into whites until no streaks remain.
- In 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt butter. (To make 2 individual omelets, use 6-inch nonstick skillet.)
- When butter is sizzling, add egg mixture, spreading it into an even layer with spatula. Cover pan; reduce heat to low. Cook omelet 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown on bottom and barely set on top.
- Spoon strawberries down center of omelet; with spatula, fold omelet in half over filling.
- Slide omelet onto plate; dust with confectioners' sugar.
