Truita de Carreroles

[Mystique]

During my time exploring this picturesque country, I had the pleasure of indulging in the delightful flavors of Andorran cuisine. One dish that stands out as a true taste of Andorra is Truita de Carreroles, a savory mushroom omelet that captures the essence of the mountains.



Ingredients:

• 200g wild mushrooms (such as chanterelles or porcini), cleaned and sliced
• 6 eggs
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 50g cured ham (such as Jamón Serrano or Bayonne ham), diced
• 50g grated cheese (such as Andorran Tomme or Gruyère)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Procedure:

1. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the sliced wild mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and become golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Stir in the cooked mushrooms, diced ham, and grated cheese, reserving a small amount of cheese for garnish.
4. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a clean skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and spread it evenly to cover the surface.
5. Cook the omelette for 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom is set and golden brown. Carefully flip the omelet using a spatula or by sliding it onto a plate and inverting it back into the skillet.
6. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked through and the cheese is melted.
7. Slide the Truita de Carreroles onto a serving platter and sprinkle with the reserved grated cheese and fresh parsley for garnish.
8. Slice the omelet into wedges and serve hot, accompanied by crusty bread and a crisp green salad.

With its rich flavors and hearty textures, Truita de Carreroles is a delightful taste of Andorra that's sure to warm your soul and transport you to the misty mountains of this charming country. Bon appétit!
