This feta and semi-dried tomato omelette is a quick and flavorful meal perfect for breakfast or a light lunch. The creamy feta pairs beautifully with the sweet tang of the tomatoes, making each bite deliciously satisfying.

A white plate sits on a white marbled surface. On the plate, there is a folded golden-yellow omelette on the right side, partially open to show a red tomato filling and small white chunks of soft cheese inside. On the left side of the plate is a fresh salad with light green frilly lettuce leaves mixed with dark purple leafy greens. Next to the plate on the right side are a silver fork and knife resting on a white cloth. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1 tsp olive oil
2 eggs, lightly beaten
4 semi-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
25g feta cheese, crumbled
Mixed salad leaves, to serve

Instructions

Step 1: Heat the olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
Step 2: Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, gently swirling the eggs with a fork as they begin to set.
Step 3: When the eggs are still slightly runny in the middle, sprinkle the chopped semi-dried tomatoes and crumbled feta evenly over one half of the omelette.
Step 4: Fold the omelette in half to enclose the filling.
Step 5: Cook for another minute to let the cheese soften, then carefully slide the omelette onto a plate.
Step 6: Serve immediately with a side of mixed salad leaves for a fresh contrast.

Tips & Variations

For added flavor, sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley or oregano over the omelette before folding.
You can substitute semi-dried tomatoes with sun-dried tomatoes if you prefer a deeper flavor.
Use goat cheese instead of feta for a creamier texture and slightly different taste.
Serve with crusty bread or toast for a more substantial meal.

Storage

Omelettes are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Reheat gently in a low oven or microwave to avoid overcooking, although the texture may change slightly.

How to Serve

FAQs

Can I make this omelette dairy-free?

Yes, simply omit the feta cheese or use a dairy-free cheese alternative to keep it dairy-free.

What if I don’t have semi-dried tomatoes?

You can use fresh cherry tomatoes, chopped and lightly sautéed to reduce their moisture, or sun-dried tomatoes for a more intense flavor.
