- quail - 10 pieces

- 2 teaspoons butter

Instructions
Step 1
To make an omelet, you need to use a large saucepan, silicone or enamel bowl, whisk or mixer. For this purpose, you can use a food processor. First, the dishes must be rinsed well under running water and dried.
Step 2
Eggs are chosen fresh and clean, it is advisable to wash them in warm water using a dishwashing brush before cooking. Eggs should be used at room temperature. It is advisable to melt the butter and add at the end of the whisk. It is recommended to salt the omelet before pouring the whipped mixture into the mold. Milk is best used warm. Cold will not work, but hot will make the color of the omelet gray, and the omelet itself will not be uniform in consistency. You can use low-fat cream for this purpose, then the omelet will be more aromatic and tender in taste.
Step 3
Then you need to beat the eggs and milk until smooth, add salt, butter and continue beating into a thick foam. It is desirable to have a lot of bubbles on the surface. This will give the future omelet airiness and tenderness. Pour the mixture into a mold or bowl. There is no need to lubricate the bottom, as the liquid mixture already contains oil.
Step 4
Pour 2 liters of clean water into a large saucepan and boil. Then it is necessary to put the mold inside so that the water barely reaches the border of the top and does not get inside. After that, cover the pan with a lid and leave for 5-10 minutes over low heat. Do not open the cover. Take out the form, free it from the omelet by turning it over on a plate. Garnish with fresh vegetables, herbs, lemon wedges and any sauce you like. Serve warm.
Step 5
Depending on the fat content of the milk used in the preparation, the calorie content of the original product varies. The initial volume in the finished product increases 3-4 times. The omelet should be lush, airy and pale yellow.
