lorore:Thanks for the feedback. Before the thermomix I had never been successful cooking omelette, always ended up scrambling it, so for me, this was the first time I had cooked an omelette so had no comparison in terms of time.
I made this after trying a steamed omelette with the egg mix beaten in a bowl rather than the thermomix so my intention here was to create a recipe that used only the thermomix.
Now I have chickens and geese so make them a lot and have learned to cook them in a pan, still beat the mix in the thermy though. I actually completely forgot about doing it in the steamer!
This was quite tasty. The only reason I'm giving it a 2 is that it took twice as long as doing it in a saucepan would have taken, and because of using the Varoma it created 3 times the number of dishes to be washed. The recipe itself is fine, though! I'm glad I gave it a try!
We made the omlette version of this for dinner tonight. The omlette was quite tasty however I found it to be very fiddly and fairly time consuming to make compared to the more traditional way in a frypan. The portions were also quite small for two people. Thank you for the recipe as I was keen to try this.
Added some Ham, and cooked for another 4 minutes. Beautiful....Thankyou
This has quickly become a go-to dinner for our family when we are lacking in inspiration, or have heaps of eggs & food to use up. very easy to make dairy free as well! Love it! Thank you!
Great flavours!! Such soft, fluffy and delicious scrambled eggs. Originally, I thought it was going to take much longer in the TM vs a stove-top pan for making scrambled eggs but for the outcome of the eggs, less cleaning and the ability to walk away and do other things in the morning, I am going to keep coming back to this recipe!! Thanks for sharing
Best scrambled eggs ever!!!!
such a quick and awesome breakfast
Definitely use butter or even better spray oil the paper but turned out nice and fluffy and light
