Omelette with Tomatoes

The first step in preparing this delicious recipe is to ensure that the vegetables are fresh and well-prepared. So, we start by washing the tomatoes under a stream of cold water, being careful to remove any impurities. After washing them, we cut them into small pieces, so they integrate well into the final dish. The onion, on the other hand, will be carefully peeled, then cut either into thin rings or cubes, depending on our preferences and their size.

Next, we take care of the three eggs that we will beat in a bowl, adding a pinch of salt to enhance their flavor. It is important to beat them well, so that the egg whites and yolks are completely homogenized, resulting in a uniform mixture. Once the eggs are ready, we place a pan on high heat, adding a generous amount of oil to fry them. When the oil is hot enough, we pour in the beaten eggs and let them fry until they become golden and fluffy. After frying, we remove them from the pan and transfer them to a bowl, setting them aside for the moment.

Now, we move on to preparing the vegetables. We take another pan, placing it back on high heat, adding fresh oil. Once the oil is heated, we add the chopped onion and let it fry for about 30 seconds until it becomes slightly translucent. Then, we add the previously chopped tomatoes and let them fry for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. This is when the tomatoes will release their juice and transform into a flavorful and juicy mixture.

When the tomatoes have reached the desired consistency, we add the fried eggs to the pan and gently stir them, allowing them to combine with the vegetables for another 30 seconds. It is essential to ensure that everything is well integrated and that the flavors blend harmoniously. Finally, we turn off the heat and add salt and pepper to taste, stirring again to ensure that every bite will be full of flavor.

Even though the original recipe mentioned only salt, I prefer to add a little pepper for a more complex and savory taste. This dish can be served both as a main course and as a side dish, and the combination of vegetables and eggs makes it ideal for any meal. Enjoy your meal!
