Yashim has bÖrek for breakfast, but a spicy omlet makes a good alternative: or it’s lunch. Yashim has made it late at night for a hungry lover. At fancy Istanbul hotels, the breakfast chef will make up your omlet to your liking, and cook it for you on the spot. Two minutes.

Ingredients

  • eggs 4
  • salt
  • pepper
  • butter
  • 1 tsp

Method

  • Beat the eggs with the salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a wide frying pan and add the onions just before the butter starts to burn. Stir them about for a few moments, to wilt, then give the pan a shake and pour in the egg. Sprinkle the cooking egg with parsley and chilli, to taste.
  • Keep tipping the pan to give the runny egg a chance to slide onto the hot sides. W
