Cheese Omlette...

[AB Editor]

... With crab.

Will it work? The cheese is Gouda. I'm considering my options for dinner without having to go to the shops.

Thoughts?

Why? I mean why spoil the crab? I can't eat eggs I'm allergic to them but, I would have a cheese omelette and have crab salad or save it for tomorrow.If the crab's got ti be eaten up, then I'd do scrambld egg with crab and eat the cheese separately.

I think I'd leave the crab out, and have it separately with a bit of salad or whatever.

Beware of cheese omelettes, though.

I made one at short notice 30 years ago for a girl I'd just met, and she was so impressed that we're soon celebrating our 25th!

Thanks for the warning Venator.

I thought I could sense a crab salad on the horizon. Might go the scrambled route or just leave the cheese to the side. I have oyster sauce, water chestnuts and spring onions so a crab omelette by itself would work.

But then, the idea of a cheese omelette is quite appealing.

crab cakes are more appealing

[AB Editor]

This is true.

cheese and crab omlette is only kind of like a cross between crab meunier and crab gratin but in an omlette, i think it sounds quite nice actually, lots of seafood dishes are made with cheese so i can't see why crab wouldn't work with it.

got any noodles Ed? prep some, stir fry some shredded green peppers and a green chilli grate in a small amount of lemongrass if you have it and the zest of about 1/4 lime add to noodles and stir in the crab at the last minute
Have the gouda on toast tomorrow for lunch
