Ingredients:

            
• 2 small zucchinis

• 1 tomato or a handful of cherry tomatoes
• 1 bunch of scallions
• 3 tablespoons sour cream or thick natural yogurt
• Salt, pepper, sweet paprika to taste
• Oil for frying

How to prepare the perfect zucchini omelet?

1. In a bowl, crack the eggs and beat them vigorously until they are fluffy. Add the diced tomato, or if using cherry tomatoes, cut them into quarters. Chop the white and green parts of the scallions and add them to the eggs. Then, season the mixture with salt, pepper, and sweet paprika, and finally, mix everything with the sour cream or natural yogurt.
2. Heat a small amount of oil in a pan, then evenly spread the prepared and dried zucchini. Pour the egg mixture with the vegetables, and set the pan over medium heat. Cover the omelet with a lid and cook for about 20-25 minutes until the mixture sets.
3. After this time, remove the lid and check if the bottom of the omelet is well-browned. If so, cover the pan with a large plate, flip it so the omelet lands, and gently slide it back onto the pan to cook the other side. This will take another 5-10 minutes. When the omelet is ready, serve it immediately, preferably with fresh herbs or crispy lettuce.
