Comment préparer Egyptian Eggplant Omelet

  1. Peel 1 large eggplant (about 1 pound).
  2. Halve the eggplant lengthwise.
  3. Cut each half crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices, then cut the slices into 1/2-inch strips. You should have approximately 4 cups of eggplant strips.
  4. In a medium covered saucepan, cook the eggplant strips and 1/2 medium onion (chopped) in 1/2 cup of boiling salted water for 5 minutes, or until tender.
  5. Drain the eggplant mixture thoroughly in a colander.
  6. Pat the eggplant mixture dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  7. In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, brown 1/2 pound ground beef or lamb with 2 cloves minced garlic over medium-high heat. Break up the meat as it cooks.
  8. Drain off any excess fat from the skillet.
  9. Stir in the cooked eggplant mixture into the skillet with the browned meat.
  10. Spread the eggplant and meat mixture evenly across the bottom of the skillet.
  11. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  12. Carefully pour the egg mixture over the meat and vegetable mixture in the skillet.
  13. Cook over medium heat until the edges of the omelet begin to set.
  14. Gently run a spatula around the edges of the omelet, tilting the skillet to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  15. Continue cooking and lifting until the omelet is almost completely set but still slightly moist on top.
  16. Place the skillet under a preheated broiler (about 5 inches from the heat) for 2-3 minutes, or until the top is set and golden brown.
