Equipment

  • We used a Le Creuset non-stick frying pan to make the omelette.

Ingredients
 
 

  • ½ cup cottage cheese
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup fresh peas shelled & blanched
  • 1 tbsp Superb Herb Mint chopped
  • 1 ½ tbsp store-bought basil pesto
  • salt & black pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl whisk the eggs and cottage cheese together. Season with salt and pepper. Fold in the chopped mint.
  • Melt butter in a nonstick frying pan over medium to high heat. Fry the peas for a minute.
  • Pour in egg mixture, titling and moving the frying pan so the mixture covers the entire surface.
  • Loosen a couple of times with a spatula so any uncooked egg can run into the centre.
  • Carefully fold in half, slide onto a plate, drizzle with pesto and eat while hot.
