Baked omelette with red onion, sour cream - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute red onion with yellow or white onion, or even shallots. The flavor will be slightly different, but still delicious. Caramelizing them well is key!
Greek yogurt or crème fraîche are good substitutes for sour cream. They will provide a similar tang and creamy texture.
This recipe is already vegetarian! Just ensure that any cooking oil or butter you use is plant-based if you're being strict.
While best served immediately, you can prepare the onion filling in advance. Store it in the refrigerator and add it to the omelette just before baking. Assembled omelette doesn't keep well.
Store leftover baked omelette in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. It might lose some of its texture upon reheating.
Freezing is not recommended as the texture of the eggs and sour cream can change, becoming watery and less appealing. It's best enjoyed fresh.
Omit the flour in the first step, or try using a low-carb flour alternative like almond flour or coconut flour. Be mindful of the sugar added to the onions and use a sugar substitute if desired.
This omelette pairs well with a side salad, some fresh crusty bread, or roasted vegetables. A sprinkle of fresh herbs on top also adds a nice touch.
Absolutely! Bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, or zucchini would all be great additions to the onion filling. Sauté them along with the onions.
Make sure your pan is well-seasoned or use a non-stick pan. Also, heating the pan and oil adequately before pouring in the egg mixture helps prevent sticking.
