Indonesian-Inspired Banana Omelette for Two

By: Lee Holmes

This recipe reminds me of the breakfast street food I enjoyed every morning when I was teaching English across Indonesia. You can make a savoury version too with shallots, garlic, chilli and toasted shredded coconut. The sweet version also tastes sensational with in-season mango, chopped mint and toasted coconut.

Ingredients

2 large eggs
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp fresh nutmeg, grated
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tsp alcohol-free vanilla extract
Pinch sea salt
2 ripe bananas, mashed
1 tbsp coconut oil
½ cup fresh mixed berries
2 tbsp pistachio nut kernels
Rice-malt syrup, for drizzling
Handful mint leaves, toasted
Shredded coconut, to serve (optional)

Method

In a small bowl, beat the eggs and add the cinnamon, nutmeg, chia seeds, vanilla and salt and stir to combine. Add the mashed banana and mix well.
Place the coconut oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour the egg mixture into the frying pan and cook until bottom is set.
Scatter over the berries and pistachios and continue cooking until top is firm.
Carefully remove from the pan and drizzle over the rice-malt syrup. Top with mint leaves and the shredded coconut, if using. Serve immediately.
