C&O Railroad Jelly Omelette
A recipe from the dining cars of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad from the 1950's "Use the jam or jelly of your choice!" ***Do not salt eggs before or during cooking. Salt can cause the eggs to become tough tough during cooking, so for best results salt eggs (if desired) only after cooking.
1 servings 1 omelette 10 min 10 min prep
3 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
2 tablespoons jelly or jam
butter
Mix eggs & milk with a fork until blended.
In a non-stick omelette pan melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat, when butter stops foaming pour in eggs, swirling around pan to distribute evenly.
Cook, lifting sides of omelette to let uncooked egg flow underneath, until almost set (about 1 minute), spread jelly or jam of choice over half of omelet.
Fold plain side of omelette over jelly and cook for an additional 20 seconds.
Serve at once.
Salt& pepper to taste.
