How to Make Baked Omelet With Meat Irgee

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In an oven-safe skillet (or a buttered 9x13 inch baking dish), brown 1 lb of ground lean beef and 1/2 lb of ground lamb with 1/2 cup chopped onion over medium-high heat until browned, breaking up the meat as it cooks.
  3. While the meat cooks, in a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon Syrian pepper blend.
  4. Once the meat is cooked through, drain off any excess grease. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the meat and onions.
  5. Place the skillet (or baking dish) on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the omelet is set and lightly golden brown.
