Vegetable Omelette – Hot and Dry Temperament

This flavorsome dish begins with the wholesome goodness of 2 eggs, providing a protein-rich foundation for your palate. Seasoned with a touch of salt, white pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper, the omelette ignites your taste buds with a gentle heat, perfectly aligned with hot temperaments. To enhance its richness, we incorporate 1 tbsp of milk, adding a creamy touch to the ensemble. The medley of diced vegetables, including 1 small green pepper, 1 small red pepper, and 1 small onion, adds vibrant colors and textures to the omelette, imparting a refreshing balance. To further soothe the heat, we introduce 1 tsp of ghee, providing a nurturing essence that complements dry temperaments. The omelette is then adorned with a tablespoon of grated cheese of your choice, elevating the flavors with a delightful hint of indulgence.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][aiovg_video id=2436][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
