Spicy flavours: Masala omelette
Spicy flavours: Masala omelette (Jason Lowe)

You may have seen this if you have visited India and it can often contain lots of other ingredients such as onions and peppers, but I think fewer ingredients and fresh and spicy flavours make for a simpler and cleaner-tasting option.

8 eggs, beaten
8 spring onions, trimmed, washed and thinly sliced
1 small green and 1 red chilli, trimmed, seeded and finely chopped
2tbsp chopped coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A couple of knobs of butter

Mix all of the ingredients together and season to taste. You can make one large omelette to share or individual ones; it's up to you.

Heat a non-stick frying pan on a medium heat and add a knob of butter.

Pour in the mixture and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until the mix begins to set.

Stop stirring, leave on the heat for about 20 seconds then slide on to a warmed serving plate.
