🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Prepare the filling: Drain and crumble the crab meat. Mix with 1 tablespoon of parsley, salt, and pepper.

  2. 2

    Beat the eggs with salt, pepper, paprika (optional), and 2 tablespoons of parsley. Whisk lightly without incorporating too much air.

  3. 3

    Heat a non-stick pan with butter and oil. Pour one third of the egg mixture and tilt to form a thin, even layer. Cook for 45-60 seconds.

  4. 4

    On the near edge, spread one third of the crab filling. Gently roll the omelette to form a cylinder. Slide the roll to the opposite edge.

  5. 5

    Add a little butter if needed. Pour half of the remaining egg mixture into the empty space, tilting so it goes under the roll. Cook for 40 seconds.

  6. 6

    Place another third of the filling and roll again. Repeat one last time with the remaining eggs and filling.

  7. 7

    Brown the rolled omelette on all sides for 1 minute over low heat. Transfer to a board and let rest for 1 minute.

  8. 8

    Cut into 4-5 cm sections with a sharp, moistened knife. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, fleur de sel, and pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks
  • Drain the crab filling well to prevent the omelette from becoming soggy.
  • Maintain a constant medium heat: too high heat makes the layers brittle.
  • Roll with confidence but gently. The omelette should be pliable.
  • Use a sharp, slightly moistened knife for clean slices.
  • Serve with a spinach salad and a yogurt-dill-lemon sauce.
