Altered ingredient amounts. Added tomatoes x 2 large - thinly sliced - this added even more flavour - left out chillies. - 14 Apr 2011
Great alternative to traditional omelette. Decreased the amount by 3 as i was making for 2 of us. Very filling on its own so no need for side dishes. It's also very flexible that u can add whatever is ur favourite filling and turns out just as delicious!! - 08 Nov 2011
