Scrambled Colors | Omleta Colorata
Ingredients:
- Eggs (two or three)
- Kale
- Red bell pepper
- Garlic and onion (to taste)
- Olive oil
- Spices: salt and pepper
- Shredded parmesan
- Prosciutto
Preparation:
- Slice a few garlic cloves and the quarter of an onion (green garlic or scallions can be used instead as well).
- Tear the kale leaves into small chunks.
- Cut the red bell pepper into cubes.
- Lightly broil the onion and the garlic in a bit of olive oil. I like to cook them till they turn slightly yellowish, but not too much (such that they retain some flavor).
- Add the kale and the bell pepper, and cook for a minute or two. Keep stirring.
- Move everything to one half of the pan, then add the eggs in the other side (don't break them yet).
- Quickly sprinkle some salt and pepper over the dish.
- Once the whites start to solidify and get a nice bright color, break the yellows, let them thicken a bit, the mix. This will add a mixture of both white and yellow colors to your final presentation.
Presentation:
- While the dish is still hot, top with shredded parmesan (which will melt slightly) and sliced prosciutto.
- I love to serve this recipe next to a red beet salad and an orange and apple smoothie. Together they make a very healthy and delicious breakfast.
About author
I cook to relax, to make family and friends happy, to recreate favorite dishes I've enjoyed in the past, or to discover new concoctions. I use my creativity to prepare authentic Romanian and Eastern-European dishes with ingredients easily found in grocery stores outside of this geographic area. I put emphasis on flavor and ease of preparation. I find joy in knowing that others have a chance to try out some of these recipes. I'd love to hear back your thoughts on my posts: my email is liviutzu@gmail.com. Don't be a stranger. :)
