Steam omelette - general principles of cooking

For a classic omelet, the correct combination of proportions is very important. Ideally, the mass of eggs and milk should be the same. Before breaking the shell, the egg should be thoroughly washed with cold running water to prevent particles of dirt and feathers from entering.

When mixing eggs and milk, it is important to achieve a perfectly homogeneous consistency. In this case, you will get that most delicate dish that small children and people suffering from stomach ailments adore.

Instead of chicken eggs, you can use quail eggs. In this case, four quail eggs will replace one regular chicken egg. If the dish is being prepared for a child, it is important to make sure that the child is not allergic to egg whites.

To steam an omelet, it is convenient to use a double boiler or multicooker with the appropriate function. If there are no such devices in the kitchen, then a water bath can successfully replace them.

Steam omelette - diet food recipes

Dishes made from milk and eggs are known in many national cuisines, but it is believed that the classic omelet was invented by French chefs. Omelette is a universal dish. It is prepared for breakfast, dinner, it is included in the medical diet, a protein diet is based on it, and it is also recommended for baby food. It all depends on the cooking method. Eggs mixed with milk are fried in a thick frying pan, baked in the oven, and steamed. And they are not limited to just these two products. An omelet is prepared with mushrooms, ham, cheese, flour, potatoes and onions, green peas, and various cereals.

Steam omelette has a special taste. It turns out to be very tender and light and is recommended for children and for dietary nutrition. Not everyone in the household has double boilers, so you can do this: boil water in a large saucepan, place a colander in it (the saucepan) so that it does not touch the water. Place the bowl with the egg-milk mixture in a colander, close and hold until the mixture thickens (usually 10-15 minutes). This steam bath perfectly replaces a double boiler.

A steam omelette, the recipe for which is called a classic one, is simple to prepare, the main thing is to maintain the correct proportion. And it is always the same: the correct omelet is obtained when the volume of eggs is equal to the volume of milk. It is not at all necessary to measure milliliters and grams; half an eggshell is a good measurement. So, if you plan to make an omelet from one egg, then measure out the milk into two halves of the shell. It should be remembered that eggs should be mixed with milk or beaten just before preparing the omelet.

So, for two servings of a classic steam omelet, we need five eggs, approximately one glass of milk, and a little salt.

Do not beat the eggs, but mix them gently, add milk in a gentle stream, and add salt. Place a heat-resistant bowl with this mixture in a double boiler for 15-20 minutes.

For lactose intolerant people, milk can be replaced with water.

Steam omelette can also be prepared in a water bath. Pour water into a saucepan with a thick bottom and place the molds with the egg-milk mixture so that the water reaches only half of them. Close the pan. Boil water over low heat until the omelette is ready.

Steamed protein omelette has special dietary properties. It is indispensable for intestinal disorders, stomach diseases, and high cholesterol.

To prepare one serving, we need the whites of three eggs, a quarter glass of water or skim milk, and butter to grease the pan.

Carefully separate the yolks from the whites. There is a special device for this, but you can do without it. Whisk the whites with the selected liquid, pour the mixture into a mold, cook in a double boiler or in a steam bath for 10-15 minutes.

Steamed chopped omelette with sauce is another recipe for preparing an egg dish. For it we need 2 eggs, 80 milliliters of milk, a tablespoon of wheat flour, 15-20 grams of butter.

Steam the omelette according to the classic omelette recipe. But to make the omelet denser, we slightly change the proportions: we reduce the amount of milk by half. Cool the resulting dense mass and chop it. Mix the flour with the remaining cold milk so that there are no lumps. Cook the mixture in a small saucepan until it becomes jelly, then add butter and chopped omelette. This dish will be even tastier if you add a little low-fat cottage cheese.

Steamed omelette can also be mixed. But, given that it is considered primarily a dietary dish, you should not add fatty and fried sausage, bacon, or sharp cheese to it. A small amount of melted butter, low-fat cottage cheese, boiled carrot puree, and mild chopped herbs are appropriate here.

Air omelette in a double boiler

If you have a double boiler, you can prepare a wonderful fluffy omelette that everyone will love. The dish will not burn, it will turn out unusually tender.

What do you need:

  • 2 eggs
  • 100 ml milk
  • salt and pepper - to taste

How to cook a fluffy omelette in a double boiler:

  1. First you need to cool the eggs, then beat them with a whisk or mixer, add milk. Salt and pepper should be to taste; for variety, you can add pieces of ham, tomatoes, bell peppers, shrimp or herbs. It should be understood that all these components can increase the calorie content of the dish.
  2. All components of the omelet must be poured into a steamer cup, after greasing it with vegetable oil and turn on the timer for 20 minutes. You can decorate the dish with green peas and herbs.

To make your breakfast more satisfying, you can grate cheese on top of the still hot omelette, which will result in a very appetizing crust. This option is suitable only for those who do not follow a strict diet and do not count the calorie content of each dish.

And if you can’t live without sweets, prepare an original omelet according to the recipe of maestro Alexander Seleznev!

In a steamer

Classic recipe

The recipe for an omelet in a steamer can be called a classic: it is in it that a light and airy steamed omelet is traditionally prepared in a frying pan. It is not customary to include fried sausage, ham and spicy cheese in a dietary dish, but low-fat cottage cheese and steamed carrots would be appropriate. When cooking scrambled eggs in a double boiler, omit the milk from the recipe.

You will need:

  • eggs - 3 pieces;
  • milk - half a glass;
  • butter - teaspoon;
  • salt.

Preparation:

  1. Mix eggs with salt and milk.
  2. Pour the mixture into a greased bowl and, lowering it into the unit, bake for twenty minutes.

How to cook a steam omelette without a steamer? Organize a water bath: pour water (up to half) into a container with a thick bottom and, placing a bowl with the egg mass in it, simmer over low heat for 25-35 minutes with the lid closed. It is better to take a metal omelet mold and pre-grease it with oil. Important: the bottom of the bowl should touch the surface of the water, and not sink into it.

A steamed omelette without a steamer turns out fluffy and tender due to the uniform heating of the dish, and thanks to the exposure to low temperatures (no more than 100°C), all beneficial substances will retain their properties.

It’s easy to make a steam omelette using a plastic bag: pour the omelette mixture into it and, carefully tying it, place it in a pan of boiling water. Cook the omelette over low heat for 15 minutes, then cut the bag and serve the dish.

With meat

The recipe for a steam omelette with meat cannot be supplemented with minced or finely chopped onion and breadcrumbs, as in the photo. Without losing the taste of the dish, beef can be replaced with boiled chicken breast or lean pork.

You will need:

  • eggs - 4 pieces;
  • beef - 200 g;
  • milk - half a glass;
  • butter - teaspoon;
  • spices, salt.

Preparation:

  1. Boil the meat and grind in a blender.
  2. Mix spices, salt, eggs, milk.
  3. Pour a third of the omelette mixture into the steamer bowl and bake for 10 minutes until set.
  4. Mix another third of the mixture with the meat and pour into the first layer. Cook for another 10 minutes.
  5. Pour the remaining mixture over the mixture and bake for another 10 minutes until done. The omelette is ready to serve.

The result is a hearty and delicate puff omelette with meat, which can be served for lunch as a second course. If time is short, all the ingredients can be mixed and baked in one layer - it will be appetizing, but less elegant. To cook a steamed omelette in a multicooker, use the “Baking” or “Multicook” mode with the cooking time specified in the recipe.
