Mushroom and herb omelette

Ingredients

  • 60 gm butter, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 300 gm mixed mushrooms, such as field, Swiss brown and pine, thickly sliced
  • 1 small garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 8 eggs
  • 3 tbsp finely chopped mixed herbs (see note)
  • 100 gm goat’s curd
  • To serve: buttered toasted baguette and leaf salad

Method

Main
  • 1
    Heat half the butter and half the oil in a 24cm-diameter frying pan over medium-high heat until foaming, add half the mushrooms and half the garlic, season to taste and stir occasionally until browned (3-4 minutes), then reduce heat to medium.
  • 2
    Whisk half the egg and half the herbs in a bowl to combine, season to taste, pour into pan, shaking pan to distribute herbs evenly. Cook, pulling edges into centre and tipping pan, until beginning to set (2-3 minutes). Scatter with half the goat’s curd, loosen edges with a palette knife and slide onto a warm plate, folding over as you go. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve hot with baguette and salad.

Notes

Use any combination of chives, parsley, tarragon, thyme, chervil and oregano.
