TranslationFour eggs in half a pint of milk and an ounce of oil well beaten, to make a fluffy mixture; in a pan put a little oil, and carefully add the egg preparation, without letting it boil however. And when one side is done, turn it out into a service platter fold it pour over honey, sprinkle with pepper and serve. Ingredients:3 tbsp honey4 eggs 275 ml milk 25g butter 1 tbsp olive oil Twist of black pepper Method:Beat together the eggs, milk and oil. Pour a little olive oil into a frying pan and heat. When this is sizzling add the omelette mixture. Agitate with a fork until the mix starts to solidify (this will make for a lighter omelette).

Fold this over once more and cut into thick slices. Sprinkle with black pepper and serve. |
