Weekend Breakfast Idea....

Don't you just love weekend... I bet it would be practically impossible to find someone who doesn't enjoys waking up to a lazy weekend..full of one golden promise..a relaxing no pressure day. In making the morning of such a lovely day more treasured, a wonderful lay of breakfast plays a critical role.
I am sharing here one of the weekend breakfast ideas, which I love to dabble with..it isn't that difficult..so you sure will enjoy it...
Pancakes...with Spanish Omelette and bread with Rasberry Jam...
For the Pancake -
I use Betty Crocker mix...easily available in all super markets.
100 gms of pancake mix
150 ml of milk
45 ml of water
1 egg
Oil to fry
1. Mix all the ingredients into a smooth batter
2. Heat oil in a small non-stick pan
3. add 1-2 serving spoon amount of batter and let it cook on medium/ low flame.
4. Once the top is not runny any more, flip the pancake and cook the other side.
5. Cook each side till they have a brownish/ dark-brownish tinge as on cover of Betty crocker pancake mix.
Above measurements - make 8 pancakes...half it if you'r cooking for just two..
For the Spanish Omelette -
Okay..now here, what you put into your omelette is totally your call.. I mean, from Mushrooms, to colorful capsicum, onion, boiled potato, chicken salami, tomato, cheese.. you can choose your filling and go with it.
In recipe below, I will be using filling of colored capsicum (coz I so love them), mushrooms, chicken salami and cheese..
3 Eggs
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow & red capsicum
4-5 small mushrooms chopped finely
3-4 chicken salami ( I use Zorabian brand)
1 small cube of cheese (go by your desire for cheese)
Salt
Pepper
1. Mix all the above ingredients with the eggs.
2. heat Oil in a small span and pour in the mixture.
3. Let the mixture cook for 4-5 minutes in low to medium flame.
4. Use a flat spoon to release the omelette sticking to the pan.
5. Once yo see the base of the omelette is firm.. use a plate to cover the pan.
6. Keeping the plate firmly on top of the pan.. flip the pan on the plate.
7. Slide the omelette back to the pan..with the gooey side now down and firm side up.
8. Cook for 5-10 minutes more..or till down.
Remove from pan..
