A Two-Egg Masala Omelette

  1. Season the eggs lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Pour the oil into a 6- or 7-inch, preferably nonstick or other well-seasoned frying pan and set over medium-high heat.
  3. When hot, put in the mustard and cumin seeds.
  4. As soon as the mustard seeds pop, a matter of seconds, turn the heat to medium low.
  5. Toss in the shallots and stir them once or twice.
  6. Quickly add the tomatoes, cayenne, cilantro, and a dash of salt and pepper.
  7. Stir and cook about a minute or until the tomatoes have softened a bit.
  8. Stir the beaten eggs and add them, letting them spread out in the pan.
  9. Turn heat to medium.
  10. Quickly mix all the ingredients in the pan, and then let the mixture spread out to the edges of the pan.
  11. Cover until the eggs are almost set.
  12. Now fold the omelette, first bringing the left side slightly past the center and then the right side over the left side.
  13. Turn the omelette over, pressing down a bit with the spatula for a few seconds.
  14. Serve immediately.
