I have been eating this Sweet Pea Omelette dish since I was little. Peas add a little sweetness, hot sauce adds a little spice... Truly delicious!

Instructions

Mise en place

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl with splash of milk, a pinch of salt and pepper. Beat well with whisk or a fork.
Chop shallots.
Portion peas and butter.

Cook omelette

In a large non-stick frying pan on medium heat, add 3 tbs butter, shallots & peas and saute for 3-4 minutes. You are basically trying to heat the peas and soften the shallots.
Lower heat to medium-low, add egg mixture and move the pan around to spread them out evenly.
When the omelette begins to firm up, but still has a little soft egg on top, ease around the edge of the omelette with a spatula to make sure it is not stuck to the pan, then transfer omelette to a large plate and flip back to the pan with soft side down.
When it starts to turn golden brown underneath, remove from the heat and slide the omelette onto a plate.
Cut in half and top with several splashes of your favorite hot sauce.
Enjoy!

Notes

Inspired by the dish my Abuela Mima used to make often.
