How to Prepare a Lucknowi Omelet

Lucknow situated in Utter Pradesh is an old world city and one that is closely associated with nawabs and high class culture. The culinary delights of the nawabs is well known. They enjoyed regal and royal food. This particular dish draws its inspiration from the nawabs of Lucknow. Savor it as culinary delight from India. In fact it is an adaption of the popular fried eggs of the west.

Requirements

Two large farm eggs. Use the natural farm eggs in preference to the commercial eggs available.

Four table spoons of butter or cooking oil. I would prefer the latest soya bean oil as it is good for the heart and has less cholesterol

Two medium sized onions

Two green chilies

A teaspoon of grated cashew nuts and some raisins.

Salt and pepper.

You will need two shallow pans and if possible a double burner. Use one of the latest non stick cookware that is available.

Procedure.

Break the eggs in a shallow plate. Put two table spoons of the oil in the pan and heat on medium flame.

Chop the onions and chilies finely. Mix them with the cashew nuts and raisins and keep aside.

After the oil is heated put the eggs in the pan and fry them carefully. Insure that the yolk of the egg is not fried.

In a separate pan put the remaining butter/oil and fry the chopped onion, green chilies and cash nuts with raisin.

Once the onion is slightly brown shut the flame. Follow up by lifting up the pan and evenly spread the ingredients on the fried eggs. Use a wooden spatula for this purpose.Add salt and pepper to taste.You now have a Lucknowi omelet.

It is a simple dish and easy to prepare, especially if you are short on time. Eat the prepared dish with white or brown bread or parotha(Indian Bread). You will relish it. This is a dish for one person. If more persons are to be served follow up with any number of eggs and selected ingredients in the same proportion. Serve it as a snack or at breakfast.
