What happens when you slice an onion paper-thin and let it cook beneath your eggs? 🧅✨ It turns golden, soft, and naturally sweet — the kind of flavor that makes this omelet taste like it’s caramelized, even without any sugar! This recipe is simple but full of texture and warmth — a cozy twist on your regular onion-tomato omelet.

Instructions

Crack 3 eggs into a bowl. Add chopped tomato, cilantro, salt, and chili flakes. Mix well and set aside.
Slice 1 medium red onion thin using a mandoline slicer. Spread the onion slices evenly in a nonstick pan and drizzle 1 tbsp oil on top.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the onions.
Cook on medium heat until bubbly and the top starts to set.
Cover with a plate, flip carefully, and slide it back into the pan to cook the other side.
Sprinkle black sesame seeds and cook for 2–3 minutes until both sides are golden.
Serve hot and enjoy the naturally sweet, golden onion flavor with fluffy eggs! 🌿
