3. Next, add a dash of water until getting a thin, smooth paste.

5. When hot, pour mixture and make long, thin omelettes that are well

Comments

The flour omelette may be the most basic and simple omelette, commonly
prepared during the post-war period when hunger invaded many homes.
However, it’s such a delicious omelette it’s still often made.
Some people mix in a few slices of streaky bacon or black botifarra. It can
be served with a lettuce and tomato salad dressed with a good splash of
olive oil

With egg prices down, this is, once again, a filling budget meal.
