Mushroom and artichoke omelette

Name: Mushroom and artichoke omelette
Prep time: 37 min
Cook time: 17 min
Total time: 54 min
Yield: 4 people
Cuisine: French
Ingredients: 6 eggs; 1 spring onion (scallion); 350 g mushrooms; 4 purples globe artichokes; 4 tablespoons olive oil; 3 tablespoons olive oil

This French "broken" omelette is not neatly folded like a classic omelette. There is more filling than egg: mushrooms and artichokes here, pan-fried with spring onions.

It can be served flat, like a Spanish omelette, but I prefer the more original broken look.
