Beef and Beans Omelette Recipe

 

A Leftover Makeover

Have your family ever grown tired of eating a leftover meal? It is such a waste if we don't get to consume it. Frankly speaking, kids (and even adults like us) can easily get tired of eating the same meal again, whether it’s the meal that the family happened to eat last night or not. As moms, we don’t want any food to go into waste because food is food and every penny counts (Ahem! Pardon me for my practicality). As I promised, today I will be sharing with you a creative way of giving life to your leftover Beef and Beans dish. This is, by the way, a sequel to my previous post on Beef and Beans recipe. If you haven’t viewed it yet, please do so. (Just click on the link above to redirect you there.) Anyhow, if there happens to be some leftovers from your Beef and Beans meal, why not make an omelette dish that neither your kids nor any adult can resist? It is like giving your leftover meal a truly one good makeover on your table runway. No sweat to lose as this recipe is so easy to cook. 

Fun Fact! 👀

Did you know that water in the egg mixture makes your scrambled egg fluffy?  The heat from the stove turns the water in the egg mixture into steam, which in turn makes your scrambled egg look lighter and fluffier. Just make sure the cooking oil is already hot before pouring in the egg mixture into the pan for better result.

Now, let’s cook! 🥢

Recipe	Beef and Beans Omelette	Serving	2
Prep Time	5 minutes	Cooking Time	8 minutes

🍗Ingredients

For two batches of egg mixture

◻️ 2 pcs of medium-sized eggs

◻️ salt (for seasoning)

◻️ 2 tsp of water (optional)

◻️ 1 tbsp of butter

◻️ 1 tbsp of corn oil (or any cooking oil)

◻️ 4 tsp of spring onions, chopped (optional)

◻️ 6 spoonfuls of (leftover) Beef and Beans

◻️ 2 spatulas

◻️ Frying pan

🍗Procedure

1 Remove your leftover Beef and beans in the ref. Transfer content to a new bowl before reheating in a microwave for 2 minutes. You may opt to thaw the Beef and Beans instead. 

2 Crack in the egg in a separate bowl. Season the egg with a pinch of salt. Add in 1 teaspoon of water. Briskly whisk the egg mixture and set aside. 

 

3 Heat the oil in a frying pan. 

4 Drop in half a spoon of butter. Wait for the butter to start melting. Spread the oil and butter on the pan.

5 Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Tilt the pan a bit sideways to allow the egg mixture to evenly spread on the pan.

6 You may garnish the top of the egg with spring onions. When the scrambled egg is no longer runny and slightly wet, pour the Beef and Beans on top, near the center. Let the scrambled egg cook for a few more seconds.

7 Flip one side of the scrambled egg towards the center, covering partly the Beef and Beans. Do the same thing with the other side until most of the Beef and Beans are covered. Garnish again the top with spring onions if you like.

8 To make another batch of omelette, repeat steps 4 - 7. Make two Beef and Beans omelettes. 
Serve immediately. 

♨️Tips !

If you are not using a non-stick pan, make sure the pan is hot before you may pour in the cooking oil. This is to ensure that the scrambled egg will not stick to the pan when you start cooking it. Pour in a tablespoon of cooking oil for every batch you make, if needed.
