Ingredients | Salmon Avocado Omelette

1 cup fiddleheads

2 slices bacon

6 eggs

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon milk

1 tablespoon water

2 teaspoons butter

2 slices Gruyere cheese (Optional)

1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives

Directions

Carefully wash each fiddlehead, remove all of the brown papery cover, and trim the ends.

Add an inch of water to the bottom of a steamer basket and heat on high until the water is boiling. Place fiddleheads into the top of the steamer basket and cover with a lid. Steam for 10 minutes. Fill a medium bowl with ice chips and water and set aside.

Meanwhile, place bacon bits into a small nonstick skillet and add 2 teaspoons water. Cook on medium heat until crispy, about 5 minutes. Drain bacon on a paper towel-lined plate.

Plunge the steamed fiddleheads into the icy water to stop the cooking progress. Remove after 5 minutes and pat dry.

Break eggs into a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add milk and 1 tablespoon water; whisk until smooth.

Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in 1/2 the egg mixture let partially set. Lift 1 section of the omelette with a spatula and tilt skillet, allowing liquid egg to run underneath. Add 1/2 the bacon and fiddleheads to the lower section and carefully fold the uncovered section over the bottom. Add 1 slice Gruyere cheese; let melt, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with the other half of the ingredients.

The water is added to the skillet with the bacon to moderate the temperature and ensuring that the fat renders before burning.

You can steam the fiddleheads the day before and keep in the fridge until ready to use.
