Healthy yummy veggie omelette

Hi friends,

Though it's a very basic recipe but everytime I cook an omelette, my daughters want me to start an Omelette joint and that made me think that there may be something which is making them stand out and so today I am sharing my omelette recipe with you and you can tell me if you find it special..

VEGGIE OMELETTE:










INGREDIENTS:
Ande (Eggs)
Shimla Mirch (Capsicum)
Lal Shimla Mirch (Red bell pepper)
Peeli Shimla Mirch (Yellow bell pepper)
Gajar (Carrots)
Patta gobhi (Cabbage)
Hari Mirch (Green chilies)
Hara Dhaniya (Coriander leaves)
Pyaz (Onion)
Namak (Salt)
Tel (Oil)

METHOD:
Dice all the bell peppers in about a square inch pieces...gajar in thin slices and patta gobhi, onion, hara dhaniya and hari mirch can be chopped finely or as per your liking. 
Take atleast 4 eggs and separate the whites...beat nicely till it gets fluffy.
Take a little oil in a frying pan and  saute all the vegetables except hara dhaniya and hari mirch...saute till half done. Here you will have to add vegetables in order of the cooking time they take....one that takes more time, will go first.
Add egg yolks, hara dhaniya, hari mirch and namak in nicely beaten egg whites and immediately pour it over sauteed vegetables. Remember to evenly spread the sauteed vegetables before pouring the eggs on it.
Cook on slow heat till done and then carefully turn it and let it cook for another minute.
Serve with vegetables side up with brown crispy toasts.

TIPS:
1.You can add some grated cheese on top when omelette is still hot and it will add up to the taste.
2.If you are a non vegetarian, you can also add bacon or small pieces of your desired meat along with vegetables.

TRICK:
The trick to make the omelettes fluffy is beat egg whites till they get fluffy and add yolks and salt just before pouring it in the pan...the fluffiness is due to trapped air in egg whites and it quickly goes once salt and egg yolk is added.
