How to re-heat an omelette ?

HAz · 8 Jul 2010 at 23:23

Hi guys

I cooked a massive omelette for din dins and saved half of it for lunch tomorrow, im not sure how to re heat this thing as i cooked a not so ready boiled egg in the micro once for 10 seconds and the whole thing exploded!

Is it ok to reheat in microwave or will the whole omelette explode too?

cheers

Omlette will be fine but the microwave will explode.

This.

You can reheat it safely, I've done it before, it just won't taste that great lol.

As long as it's piping hot it'll be fine in terms of your well-being. It will taste like crap though

even putting it under a hot grill and turning often? this was one idea.

It'll probably taste better cold.

ohh right, personally i would just stick it in the microwave in short burts

Dont do like 20secs in 1 go, do 3-4 5-6 seconds

I was just thinking that a quiche is similar and u just cook them in the oven for 20 minuets, i might give that a go.

Putting an omelette in an oven is a mistake. It will just go floppy.

hot frying pan, a little bit of oil, a couple of minutes each side and it will be fine.

YES!

Urgh, how horrid. Should have thought of this before you threw half the contents of your kitchen at it in the first place.
Why on earth didn't you keep enough of the ingredients to make another one later on.
