Ingredients:
- 6 large Eggs
- 2 Tbsp Whole Milk or Cream
- ¼ tsp Fine Sea Salt
- Pinch of Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- 2 Tbsp Unsalted Butter, divided
- 6 oz Mixed Mushrooms (Cremini, Shiitake, etc.), roughly chopped
- 1 medium Shallot, finely minced
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Fresh Thyme Leaves
- 1 Tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
- 2 Tbsp Crème Fraîche
- ½ tsp Lemon Zest
Instructions:
- Prepare the Filling: Melt 1 Tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté shallots until softened (about 3 minutes). Add mushrooms and cook until moisture evaporates and they are nicely browned.
- Stir in garlic and thyme; cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Season well with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Stir in crème fraîche and lemon zest. Check seasoning and set aside to cool slightly.
- Create the Egg Wrapper: In a bowl, whisk the eggs, milk/cream, salt, and pepper until just combined and slightly frothy—avoid over-aerating.
- Wipe the non-stick skillet clean, add the remaining 1 Tbsp butter, and heat over medium-low heat until the butter foams and subsides. Pour one-third of the egg mixture into the pan, swirling immediately to create a thin, even circle.
- Cook undisturbed until the edges are set and the surface is mostly dry but still glossy (approx. 2-3 minutes). Do not flip. Gently slide the cooked egg sheet onto a parchment-lined surface.
- Repeat the process two more times to create three total egg sheets, ensuring the heat remains medium-low for pliability.
- Assemble and Roll: Lay one cooled egg sheet flat. Spoon approximately one-third of the mushroom filling in a line across the edge closest to you, leaving a 1-inch border on the sides.
- Tightly fold the nearest edge over the filling. Using the parchment paper to help guide you (like rolling sushi), roll the omelet away from you until a neat log is formed.
- Wrap the resulting log snugly in the parchment paper and gently press to ensure a firm shape. Repeat with remaining egg sheets and filling.
- Chill wrapped logs in the fridge for at least 15 minutes to fully set the Omelet Roll shape. Slice each roll diagonally into 2 or 3 thick pieces just before serving.
