Spices for Extra Zing:

Instructions
- Get Ready: Prepare all your ingredients before starting. Rinse and pat dry the spinach, rocket, and cherry tomatoes. Measure out your spices and set them aside.
- Beat the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and add the baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk the mixture well until it becomes frothy and smooth.
- Heat the Oil: Heat the garlic olive oil in a pan over medium heat until hot and fragrant.
- Cook the Omelette: Pour the egg mixture into the hot pan and cover it with a lid. Let it cook for about 3–5 minutes, or until the bottom is golden and the top is bubbly.
- Spice It Up: Remove the lid and evenly sprinkle the smoked paprika, thyme, garlic granules, and crushed red chili flakes over the omelette. Adjust the amount of spices according to your taste preference.
- Add the Filling: On one half of the omelette, add the spinach, rocket, cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese. Press them lightly into the omelette to help them stick.
- Fold and Serve: Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Slide the omelette onto a plate and enjoy your puffy, fluffy, and golden crispy omelette with spinach, rocket, and feta filling!
