Egg pockets using sandwich maker

It was a delightful to discover a different way to use a the sandwich maker when I came across this recipe for Pillow cakes. One Sunday when the sandwich maker was used for a lazy Sunday breakfast for the kids, in no time I was rushing to wind up lunch preparations. Being short of time, I thought of skipping sabzi and just making omelettes. Then it struck me, how about I use the sandwich maker for the omelette instead. And that is how this recipe came about. Well, the same recipe as a masala omelette but prepared and presented in a different way. 

Recipe (Makes 12 pockets):

Ingredients:

Eggs - 6

Onion, finely chopped - 1 small

Green chillies, finely chopped - 2

Tomato - deseeded, finely chopped - 1/2 medium sized

Salt - to taste 

Coriander, finely chopped - 1 tbsp

Method:

Crack the eggs into a bowl. Whisk until frothy. Add the chopped onions, chillies, tomato, salt and coriander. 

Whisk until incorporated. 

Heat the sandwich maker. Brush oil generously and once ready, use a spoon to fill in the egg mix in the moulds. close the sandwich maker and let it cook for a minute at the most. 

Remove and brush some oil before making the next batch. 

Verdict: A fun way to present the regular omelette.
