For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of regular butter. If you don't have crème fraiche, sour cream can be used as a substitute. Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices to personalize the flavor profile.
Elevate your brunch game with this exquisite turkey-filled omelette. A symphony of savory flavors and textures, featuring succulent turkey, earthy shiitake mushrooms, and a hint of spice, all enveloped in a delicate, perfectly cooked egg.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter over medium-low heat. Add the shiitake mushrooms, shallot, salt, sage, and red pepper flakes. Sauté until the shallot becomes translucent (approximately 5 minutes).
Incorporate the shredded turkey and dry vermouth into the skillet. Stir until the turkey is heated through (1-2 minutes). Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk the chilled eggs with a fork until well blended. Season with a pinch of salt and white pepper.
Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in an omelet pan over medium heat until shimmering. Pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Use a spatula to gently stir the eggs until they begin to set (1-2 minutes). Shake the pan to ensure the egg covers the bottom completely. Smooth the top of the partially set eggs with the spatula. Cook until the bottom is firm and the top is still slightly soft. Turn off the heat.
Spoon the turkey mixture into the center third of the omelet. Dot with small dollops of crème fraiche, being careful not to overfill.
With the spatula, fold the top third of the omelet over the filling. Gently tip the skillet and shake the omelet towards the edge. Fold the omelet over one more time to form a loose cigar shape.
Gently slide the omelet onto a serving plate.
