An omelette with one change, and it does more than you would expect: cream cheese instead of milk. The result is creamier and firmer at the same time — it stays moist without falling apart.

The original calls for Casancrem, an Argentine brand; any spreadable cream cheese from a tub works (Philadelphia style). All that matters is that it is spreadable and not grainy like cottage cheese.

The quantity is for one person and it takes five minutes.

Ingredients

🍽 1 serving

1 egg
2 tbsp spreadable cream cheese
2 tbsp grated cheese
Salt, to taste

Method

1
Whisk all the ingredients together until the mixture is genuinely smooth: otherwise the cream cheese goes lumpy and does not spread through.
2
Brown in a non-stick pan over medium heat, about 2 minutes a side.
