Ingredients

10 large eggs

2 cups milk

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup diced cooked ham

¼ cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped

1 teaspoon salt

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Preparation

Beat the eggs in a large bowl and whisk in the milk. Stir in the cheese, diced ham, and parsley. Season with the salt and pepper.

On the Stove and in the Oven – 12” Dutch oven pot, no lid

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Meanwhile, place Dutch oven on stovetop over medium heat.
Lightly grease the oven with olive oil if you like. When hot, pour egg mixture into Dutch oven.
Transfer to centre rack in oven to bake uncovered for 45 minutes or until the top is slightly golden and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve hot.

Over the Fire or on the Grill (28 hot coals) – 12” Dutch oven pot with lid

Preheat and oil Dutch oven to 375 degrees F using 11 coals under the oven and 17 coals on the lid. This will brown the top of the omelet.
When hot, pour egg mixture into the Dutch oven. Bake for 45 minutes or until the top is slightly golden and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
When you see steam coming out from under the lid, you know it is done. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve hot.
