Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 medium tomato diced
  • 1 bell pepper any color, diced
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined. Add the turmeric, salt, and black pepper, and mix until incorporated.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the diced bell pepper to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.
  4. Stir in the diced tomato and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the mixture to soften.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the eggs are set.
  6. Once cooked, gently slide the omelette onto a serving plate. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
