Ingredients
-
3 eggs
-
1½ to 2 tablespoons water (to thin the egg mixture as needed)
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
2 mortadellas
-
Mozzarella cheese, as needed
-
Butter or oil, to grease the pan
-
Flower-shaped cutter (optional)
-
Square or rectangular nonstick pan
Instructions
-
Prepare the Mortadella
-
Use a flower-shaped cutter to cut decorative mortadella pieces; set aside.
-
Finely chop the remaining mortadella.
-
-
Make the Egg Mixture
-
Whisk eggs, water, salt, and pepper in a bowl until combined.
-
-
Heat and Grease Pan
-
Heat your square or rectangular pan over medium heat.
-
Generously grease with butter or oil.
-
-
Cook the Omelette in Layers
-
Pour a thin layer of egg mixture; spread evenly.
-
When nearly set, add mozzarella and chopped mortadella.
-
Roll the omelette gently into a log; move it to one side of the pan.
-
Pour more egg mixture into the empty space of the pan lifting the omelette slightly so that the egg can spread underneath.
-
Add cheese and chopped mortadella again; roll the omelette once more.
-
Before pouring the last one or two layers, arrange the flower-shaped mortadella on the pan.
-
Pour egg mixture over them, add mozzarella, then roll again.
-
Gently press with a spatula to form a firm rectangular log.
-
-
Finish Cooking
-
Cook the rolled omelette on all sides until lightly golden.
-
Remove from heat and let rest briefly before slicing.
-
Tips & Garnish
-
Dip a chopstick tip into mustard sauce and dot the center of each mortadella flower to create bright yellow “pollen.”
-
Place small mint leaves beside the flowers to mimic petals or leaves for a fresh, decorative touch.
