How to Make Nif's Spanish Omelette Omelet For 2

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large (8-10 inch) nonstick frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 cup chopped chorizo sausage and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove the chorizo and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 tablespoon milk, and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder until light and frothy.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the frying pan.
  5. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped fresh spinach evenly over the egg mixture.
  6. Distribute the cooked chorizo sausage over the spinach.
  7. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated cheese (cheddar, Manchego, or your favorite) over the omelette.
  8. Cover the pan with a lid and reduce heat to medium-low.
  9. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the omelette is set and the middle is no longer jiggly. Check after 3 minutes.
  10. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  11. Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
