Ostpanne
Baked Cheese Omelette

This recipe is good for breakfast or a light supper and makes 4 servings.

  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 4 green onions, sliced
  • 1 cup diced cooked ham
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin rings
  • 12 oz Jarlsberg cheese, cut into ½ inch cubes

Preheat oven to 400° F. Beat eggs, water, and salt together. Melt the butter in a heavy ovenproof pan and then add the onions, ham and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3 minutes. Pour the egg mixture over the onion, red pepper and ham mixture and then sprinkle with the cheese cubes. Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. When the egg is set and the cheese has melted, the ostpanne is done. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
