Tomato Sauce and Cheese Layered Omelette



I made this for breakfast this morning and my husband asked if I have posted it yet! He loves it,without the cheese though. It was an idea that I tried to made the morning 'make-me-a-fast' omelette tastier, and it clicked.

For 1 Omelette

Eggs-2
Milk- 1 tbsp
Salt- 1 tsp or to taste
Pepper- 1 tsp
Oil- 2 tbsp

Tomato Sauce
Tomato- 1 large
Onion- 1
Green chilli- 1

Garlic flakes- 1/2 tsp
OR
Garlic- 2
Salt- to taste
Pepper-a pinch
Ketchup- 1 tbsp
I use Chilli-garlic ketchup
Water-2 to 3 tbsp
Oil- 2 tbsp
Cheese- 25 gms(optional)

Chop the onion, garlic(if using the same), chillies and the tomatoes fine.
Grate the cheese.
Heat oil in a pan.
Add the chillies, onion and fry till the onion start turning brown.
Add the garlic,tomatoes and fry till soft,adding a little water.
Add salt,pepper and ketchup and fry till soft and sauce like.
Remove and keep aside

Beat the eggs with milk,salt and pepper till frothy.
Heat oil and pour the mix.
Let the omelette set.
I whisk it lightly once when i pour in into the pan BEFORE it sets setting so it becomes thicker and flullier.
Take care if trying that-is a tricky thing!
When one side is done, flip over.
Spread the prepared sauce over half the omelette.
Sprinkle the cheese.
Fold when done and serve hot.
I love it with buttered golden toasts.
