1. Matcha Omelette
To make a matcha omelet, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil
Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork.
- Add the matcha powder, milk, salt, and pepper to the eggs and mix until well combined.
- Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add the butter or oil.
- Once the skillet is hot, pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook for about 2–3 minutes or until the edges start to set.
- Using a spatula, lift the edges of the omelet and tilt the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
- Continue cooking the omelet until it’s cooked through and no longer runny, about 2–3 more minutes.
- Carefully flip the omelet over and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute until it’s fully cooked and golden brown on both sides.
- Serve the omelet hot, garnished with additional matcha powder or your choice of toppings.
This matcha omelet is a tasty and healthy way to start your day. The matcha adds a subtle earthy flavor and a pop of color to the dish, and the eggs provide protein to fuel your body. Enjoy it on its own or with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, herbs, or vegetables.
