Prawn Omelette With Crispy Edges

If I can have an egg a day, I will surely have it everyday in my diet. I love them poached, steamed,  as half boiled or as omelette. But I am only allowed to eat them twice a week.  Wild boar loves omelette and   Today, I am sharing a simple and yet delicious omelette recipe, Prawn Omelette. There are many variations...you can either make a classic one or with fillings.  Our favorite is prawn omelette. 

When I am tired or too lazy to cook anything elaborate and too lazy to eat out :p, I will just cook this prawn omelette to either go with bread or plain rice.  This recipe doesn't need much preparation.  I always have shelled and deveined prawns ready packed in small tupper for each cooking in the freezer and thus this has made cooking prawn omelette even easier for me.  You can seasoned the prawns  10 mins before cooking, with just salt and pepper and a pinch of sugar. The rest is just slicing thinly garlic, red onion, italian parsley and for some heat, bird's eye chilli.  Beat up 3 eggs with 1/2 tsp of maggi seasoning and you are on the go to cooking the most flavorful prawn omelette :)

ingredients : 3 eggs, 1 red onion, 2 bird's eye chilli, sea prawns,
italian parsley and garlic

WB always remind me to make sure the edges are crisp...he loves
the  burnt crisps around the edges....smell good and taste good
