The Best Omelet Ever!
If, like me, you have mint plants popping up all over the place and taking over your garden then you’ll be grateful to find a recipe that uses up the mint, tastes amazing and is a cinch to make. This is the best omelet ever.
Goat’s Cheese and Mint Souffled Omelet
Ingredients:
- 4 eggs
- 100g goats cheese (the soft rindless kind)
- Parmesan cheese
- 5 or 6 mint leaves
- salt and pepper
Method:
- Whisk eggs, goat’s cheese and mint together with salt and pepper to taste
- Heat oil in a frying pan and pour in
- Cook on high for one minute until base is browned
- Turn down heat to lowest setting and place lid on fryingpan. Leave to cook for 10 minutes
- Remove lid (omelet should be puffed up like a souffle) – sprinkle on some Parmesan
The result is a fantastic lemony-tasting light omelet. I served it with Balsamic onions for a strong, sticky flavour.

I can vouch for its yumminess!
Mmm…..might be appearing on a plate near here soon, although I now trap my mint plant in a pot, planted inside a plant trough (with cut again salad leaf mix & a parsley plant).
Have you got any recepies for Bind Weed? I have a lot of that popping up in my garden.
I think it sounds lovely! I`m a trained cook and professional gardener now and I love the intermingling of the two. Dandelion leaves (of which we have many!!) are so well known in salads these days, but its worth trying if you haven`t heard of it folks. I sell mainly flowery plants, but if you want a browse to see the unusual ones we`ve got please feel free.
I have a tomato seed question… My crops have just been totally decimated by an escaped rabbit… :O and I was wondering is it too late to propagate tomato seeds? it is still April (just very very late in April) please help!!!
Hi Obese – not I wouldn’t say it’s too late.
Pop some in now and put them in a warm spot or better still in a heated propogator. Once the seeds have germinated turn the heat off and harden them up quick. I put some cherry tom seeds in just last week.
Failing that you always buy plants from the garden centre.
Phewww thank god! I was worried then… I’m surprised no-one made a rabbit stew comment. Bravo :)
Thanks!
