Just had to try this/trout-or-salmon-omelet
Got the boy up for school this morning and fed him breakfast. Sent him off to get smarter
Saw this the other day and said hey I can do that. So I got out my players and went to work on making some breakfast for myself.
THE PLAYERS
EVERYONE IN THE POOL
ALL COOKED
AND THE TEST PIECE
Very tasty
Recipe
Serves 4.
6 eggs
2 cups flaked, cooked steelhead or salmon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup heavy cream or milk
1 minced green onion
Salt and pepper to taste
About 1/2 cup grated Pecorino or Parmesan cheese
Butter to grease the ramekins
1 lemon
Grease the ramekins with the butter and set aside. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Add the eggs to a large bowl and beat them. Add the nutmeg, salt, pepper, onion and cream and mix well.
Put a healthy serving of flaked steelhead or salmon in each ramekin. Pour the egg-cream mixture over the fish, dividing equally.
Top with the grated cheese and bake for 30-40 minutes. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with a wedge of lemon, to squeeze over the omelet at service.

As there is no pastry in this recipe, I'd opt for calling it "Baked Savory Egg & Salmon Custard"redzed wrote: But what you have created is not an omelette, but rather a quiche. Years ago there was a book called Real Men Don't Eat Quiche so maybe the creators of this dish hesitated in calling it a quiche.
Looks tasty!

In this neck of the woods we would call it a casserole. I think that properly called it is a baked savory pudding as compared to a baked sweet pudding like bread or rice pudding. In large pans they can please a crowd at a pot luck dinner. A quiche is usually fancier. Omelets are generally made in a flat pan filled and folded and from start to finish very quick.
