SERVES: 2

INGREDIENTS:
2 bread slices
1 tbsp Garlic olive oil
1 tbsp Butter olive oil
2 large eggs
1 tsp Kosher salt
1/2 tsp dried crushed chili flakes
1/2 tsp black pepper powder
(Optional: diced tomatoes and diced onions)

DIRECTIONS:
In a medium bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Add the rest of the ingredients. Then whisk again. Set aside. Heat a flat, wide skillet on medium low. When heated, add Garlic (less 1 tsp) and Butter oil. Then add the egg mixture and spread it evenly from edge to edge. Place the bread slices on egg mixture, beside each other, and centered. Gently press the bread slices down with your fingers into the egg mixture. Brush the bread slices, facing up, with Garlic olive oil. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Then carefully, with a wide metal spatula flip with bread side down on pan. After another minute or so, using your spatula, turn the wider edges of omelet towards the centre. Press down and once secure, turn one slice of bread on top of the other with cooked omelet in between. Flip a couple of times until both sides of the bread are golden brown. Serve your Indian Bread Omelet with a drizzle of Garlic olive oil, Sriracha or ketchup. YUM!
