Method

Omelette Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients

    Gather all your ingredients for the omelette: cage free eggs, sliced mushrooms, diced tomato, chopped spinach, shredded Gruyere cheese, and fines herbs.

  2. 2

    Whisk Eggs

    In a bowl, crack the 4 cage free eggs. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.

  3. 3

    Cook Vegetables

    In a non-stick skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the diced tomato and chopped spinach, cooking until the spinach wilts.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the whisked eggs over the cooked vegetables in the skillet. Gently stir to combine, then let cook undisturbed until the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese and Herbs

    Sprinkle the shredded Gruyere cheese and fines herbs over the omelette. Cover the skillet with a lid and let cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully cooked.

  6. 6

    Serve Omelette

    Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate, folding it in half if desired.

Smash Browns Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare Potatoes

    Take the boiled and cooled potatoes and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on size.

  2. 8

    Smash and Cook

    In the same skillet used for the omelette, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the potato pieces in the skillet and smash them gently with a spatula. Season with salt and black pepper.

  3. 9

    Fry Until Crisp

    Cook the smashed potatoes for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.

Toast Preparation

  1. 10

    Toast Bread

    In a toaster or on a skillet, toast the slices of bread until golden brown.

  2. 11

    Spread Butter and Preserves

    Spread whipped butter on the warm toast and top with house-made preserves.
