Ingredients for Spicy Avocado Omelette

The foundation of this dish is, of course, the eggs. They provide a fluffy base for our omelette. The addition of milk helps to make the eggs even more tender and soft. Next, avocado brings creamy texture and healthy fats, while jalapeño offers a spicy kick. The sharp cheddar cheese melts beautifully, adding a rich, savory depth. Butter is used to ensure a non-stick surface and a touch of richness. To finish, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro adds a burst of freshness and color.

Tips & Tricks

  • Want less heat? Use a milder pepper or reduce the amount of jalapeño.
  • For extra creaminess, add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on top before serving.
  • Ensure your pan is hot enough before adding eggs for a perfect cook.

Serving Suggestions

This omelette pairs wonderfully with a side of whole-grain toast or a light, fresh salad. For an extra boost, consider serving with a side of salsa or hot sauce to enhance the flavors.

Spicy Avocado Omelette Recipe Walkthrough

Start by cracking the eggs into a bowl. Give them a good whisk with the milk, a pinch of salt, and a dash of black pepper. You want the mixture to be well combined and a little frothy.

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Make sure it coats the entire bottom of the pan, which helps the omelette cook evenly and prevents sticking.

Pour the egg mixture into the pan, tilting it slightly so that the eggs cover the bottom evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for about two minutes, just until the edges start to set.

Once the edges are set, sprinkle the avocado cubes, jalapeño, and cheddar cheese over half of the omelette. This will make it easier to fold.

With a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half to cover the filling. Let it cook for another two to three minutes. You’re looking for the eggs to be fully cooked and the cheese to be perfectly melted.

Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with the fresh cilantro. Enjoy the burst of flavors!
