This omelette is a delightful mix of sweet and savory flavors.
**Ingredients**:
- – 3 large eggs
- – 2 tablespoons milk or cream (optional, for fluffiness)
- – 6-8 dates, chopped
- – 2 tablespoons walnuts, roughly chopped
- – 1 tablespoon butter or cooking oil
- – Pinch of salt
- – Pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg (optional, for extra flavor)
**Instructions**:
1. **Prep the Eggs**: Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and beat them well. If you’d like a creamier texture, mix in the milk or cream.
2. **Toast the Walnuts**: Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the walnuts and lightly toast them for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Remove and set aside.
3. **Cook the Dates**: Add a small amount of butter or oil to the same pan. Sauté the chopped dates for 1-2 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their sweetness.
4. **Combine and Pour**: Return the toasted walnuts to the pan with the dates, spreading them evenly. Lower the heat and pour the beaten eggs over the mixture.
5. **Cook the Omelette**: Allow the omelette to cook gently for 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs start to set. You can sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg over the top if desired.
6. **Fold and Serve**: Fold the omelette in half and cook for another 1-2 minutes until done. Slide onto a plate and serve warm.
