How to Make Kukye Sabzi

  1. Whisk the 3 large eggs lightly in a bowl. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Gently stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and the 1 cup of chopped fresh herbs until just combined.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil (or butter) in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet and cook, undisturbed, for about 3-4 minutes, or until the edges are set and the bottom is lightly browned.
  5. Carefully flip the omelet and cook for another 3-5 minutes over low heat, or until the other side is golden brown and cooked through.
  6. If using, arrange the thinly sliced lettuce strips on top of the omelet just before serving.
  7. Serve the Kukye Sabzi immediately. Enjoy!
