Thai Omelette Recipe All in One- Baked Omelette in a Toast Spanish Omelette
If you have leftover roti or tortilla from previous night, it becomes all the more easier to make these delicious baked egg cups for the breakfast. You can also serve the baked egg cups for tea time snack or after play snack for kids. These egg cups are a healthier option to omelette as they are baked. When you take a bite of these you can see the layers of colours and textures.
I cooked the tri colored bell peppers a bit before adding them as bottom layer. You can even use them raw, just toss them with salt and red chilli powder and use as rest of the recipe. This will keep them slightly crunchy, and you will spend lesser time. Since I wanted to keep the taste of pizza, I topped everything with Mozzarella cheese and roasted chilli flakes. You can use your favorite cheese, go on and add feta cheese or Cheddar as per your choice.
Best thing about making these in the mornings is baking smells wafting through your home. Whole home smells like a heaven when these cups are baking and there is fresh coffee brewing with a ‘fresh mornings’ breakfast aroma. It feels like right out of a french brasserie.
Recipe Notes for Making 30 Minutes Baked Egg Cups
Apply generous amount of oil to the roti disks so that they turn nice- golden and crisp. When you top up the cups with cheese, put it in a way that the yolk of the egg is visible. See it in the video. Doing this makes it a sight delight. If you are making the cups with freshly rolled rotis, make sure they are half-cooked to avoid them from turning soggy inside.
