Ingredients

6 large eggs

100g mature cheddar cheese

100g gruyere cheese

100g abondance cheese

10g butter

1 tbsp sunflower oil

100g parmesan cheese (approx. for coating) olive oil and sunflower oil for frying ready made red onion marmalade (to serve) rocket and radish side salad (to serve)

Method • Preheat over to 200C/180C fan oven. • In a large mixing bowl grate and mix together cheddar, gruyere and abondance cheeses. • In a separate bowl whisk together eggs then pour into cheese mixture. • Mix all together until combined. • Grease a 25cm ovenproof dish, ideally non-stick, with the butter and sunflower oil. • Pour egg/cheese mix into dish and cook in oven for 20-30 mins until the top is lightly browned and the omelette no longer has a liquid centre. • Remove from oven and leave to cool. Once dish is cool enough to handle, turn out the omelette onto a plate. • When completely cold, cover with cling film and place in the fridge to set further for a few hours or ideally overnight. • Grate parmesan cheese onto a plate. Cut omelette into wedges or desired shape and press each one into the parmesan on either side to coat. • Heat a non-stick pan on a medium heat with the oil for frying. • Fry the omelette shapes until golden brown, crispy and warmed through. • Serve with red onion marmalade and side salad.
