Apple Omelette (Tuscany)
Ingredients
All purpose flour - 2 1/2 tbsps
Salt - pinch
Milk - 1/2 cup
Eggs, beaten - 2
Sugar - 4 tsps
Grated rind of 1 lemon
Apples, peeled and thinly sliced - 2
Butter - 2-3 tbsps
Confectioners sugar
Make a thin smooth batter with the flour, salt and milk. Add the beaten eggs, sugar and lemon rind, and beat well. Stir the apple slices gently into the batter.
Melt the butter in a frying pan about 8 inches in diameter. Pour in the apple mixture, distributing the apple slices evenly over the bottom of the pan. Cook over a medium heat until the omelette is set and golden brown on the underside. Then invert it on to a plate of the same size and very carefully slide it back into the pan to brown the other side, adding a little more butter. Turn the omelette out on to a heated serving dish and sprinkle with sifted confectioners sugar. Serve hot.
Serves 2-4
