Eggjakaka með spínati

Omelette with spinach


Original Icelandic home cooking, the kind that was cooked and eaten there in the late 1940s and early 1950s (found from an old cookbook!).


Ingredients per person
 
3 eggs
1 Tbsp flour
5 Tbsp milk
1 tsp coarse sea salt
3 Tbsp butter
200g spinach

 

Preparation


Wash and clean the spinach and slowly heat it in a saucepan until the leaves have settled.


Separate egg whites and yolks.

Beat the egg white until stiff.

Whisk the egg yolks with the flour and milk and mix carefully with the egg whites.


Heat the butter in a large pan and, when the pan is really hot, remove a little butter and add the omelet mixture to the pan. (At the end, pour the removed butter back onto the finished omelet!)

After a few minutes, add the cooked spinach to the omelette..


...and mix everything together while baking.

Pour over the removed butter and serve immediately.
