3 Method / Steps
Step 1
Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until browned. Stir in onion and garlic and cook for 1 minute or until aromatic. Add asparagus and cook for 1-2 minutes until tender-crisp. Stir through sprouts until just wilted. Remove pan from heat, set aside and keep warm.
Step 2
Whisk eggs, egg whites and 2 tbs water in a large bowl. Season well. Spray a small 24cm non-stick frying pan with oil. Heat over medium-high heat. Pour in a quarter of the egg mixture and swirl to coat base. Cook omelette for 1-3 minutes or until just set. Carefully slide onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture to make 4 omelettes.
Step 3
Top each omelette with the mushroom mixture, chives and cheese. Season with freshly ground pepper and serve immediately.
