Method

  • step 1

    Whisk the gram flour, oregano and nutritional yeast in a bowl with 80ml water.

  • step 2

    Heat the oil in a 19cm non-stick frying pan. Pour in the omelette batter and swirl the pan around to cover the base. Pile the fresh spinach over the top, then cover the pan and cook over a low heat for 5-6 mins until the spinach has wilted and the base of the omelette is cooked but still moist. Roll the omelette over in the pan to enclose the spinach, then slide onto a plate and serve.

Didn’t think I’d like this, but it was absolutely delicious. I left out the Oregano and used more nutritional yeast, just my taste preference. I can’t stop making this now, a lovely and light breakfast. Thank you.

What a cool recipe! Fantastic, super-simple, and it really is omelet-like. I made it with chickpea flour and used sauteed leeks since I didn't have spinach, and it was delicious. This one is going to be a regular. Thanks so much!
