My courgettes are now in full production, here is an omelet I like, but you could use mushrooms , peppers or what ever.
Pick the courgettes before they are too big, I like yellow ones. Slice them thin, enough to cover the base of your none stick frying pan without overlapping. Fry till golden on both sides. I use ghee but butter marg or oil would be OK.
Whist they are frying, in a jug
2 eggs and similar amount of full milk plus one table spoon of flour, white or brown as you like. Salt and pepper. Whisk with a fork.
Pour into pan onto courgettes, they will need re-arranging to be even again.
Cook on medium with lid on till top solidifies such that you can flip it.
Now the fun part flipping.
Using what ever method you prefer flip it over.
I prefer to use a plastic spatula to loosen the omelet and then with a suitable flipping motion and assisted by the spatula toss it over.
Even after years of practice they some times don't land square in the pan and a bit of the edge gets cut off, a good time to test out some expletives &^%$£!
Once flipped replace lid and cook for a few minutes more.
When you take lid off it should have puffed up nicely and be golden brown.
Serve with toast.
I guess they are a cross between omelets, pancakes and yorkshire pudding.
