Cook the Second Omelette and Serve
Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of grated cheddar or mozzarella cheese over the omelette just before flipping it.
Sauté 1/2 cup of sliced mushrooms with the onions before adding them to the egg mixture for an earthy flavor.
If you can't find duck eggs, you can substitute them with 5-6 large chicken eggs. The taste will be milder.
Add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh mint leaves along with the coriander for a refreshing twist.
Add 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper powder to the egg mixture for an extra layer of heat.
Duck eggs are packed with high-quality protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, muscle growth, and maintaining overall body function.
They are a powerhouse of nutrients, including Vitamin B12 for nerve function, Vitamin A for vision, and selenium, a powerful antioxidant that supports the immune system.
Duck eggs contain a good amount of healthy fats, including omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for brain health and reducing inflammation in the body.
A single serving of Duck Egg Masala Omelette (one omelette made with two duck eggs) contains approximately 395 calories. This is an estimate and can vary based on the exact size of the eggs and the amount of oil used.
Yes, it can be part of a healthy diet. Duck eggs are a fantastic source of protein, Vitamin B12, and selenium. However, they are also higher in fat and cholesterol than chicken eggs, so they are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
Absolutely. You can substitute the 4 duck eggs with 5 or 6 large chicken eggs. The omelette will be slightly less rich and creamy, but still delicious.
The most common reason for a watery omelette is not deseeding the tomatoes. The pulp and seeds of the tomato hold a lot of water, which gets released during cooking. Always remove them for a perfect texture.
This omelette pairs wonderfully with buttered toast, Indian pav (soft bread rolls), or hot rotis. A simple side salad or some avocado slices also complement it well.
Omelettes are best served fresh and hot. While you can refrigerate leftovers for up to a day, they tend to lose their fluffy texture upon reheating. It's recommended to eat them immediately after cooking.
