Recipe information

Make Farmer's Omelette in just 30m. Includes ham, bacon, onions, bell peppers, tomatoes & cheese, topped with brown gravy.

Omelette Preparation

1. Cook the Bacon

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove, crumble, and set aside.

2. Sauté Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are softened.

3. Add Ham and Tomato

Stir in the diced ham and tomato, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

4. Prepare the Eggs

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and season with salt and pepper.

5. Cook the Omelette

Pour the beaten eggs over the sautéed mixture in the skillet. Cook on medium-low heat until the edges start to set, then gently lift the edges with a spatula to allow uncooked eggs to flow underneath.

6. Add Cheese

Once the eggs are mostly set, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top. Cover the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.

Brown Gravy Preparation

7. Make the Roux

In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to create a roux, cooking for about 2 minutes until golden.

8. Add Beef Broth

Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to cook and whisk until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

9. Season the Gravy

Season the gravy with salt and black pepper to taste. Keep warm until ready to serve.
