Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 15 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Prepare 250 g leek and slice into rounds but not too thinly.

Set aside.
Stage 2 - 5 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Prepare ½ shallot and chop finely.

Set aside.
Stage 3 - 5 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Beat 3 eggs, salt and pepper.

Set aside.
Stage 4 - 2 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into a frying pan on high heat. When hot, add the chopped shallot.

Salt and pepper, then cook for 1 minute without colouring.
Stage 5 - 1 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Add the leeks.

Mix well.
Stage 6 - 7 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Cook uncovered until the leeks just begin to brown, then salt and pepper.

Heat the plates.
Stage 7 - 1 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Pour the beaten eggs over the leeks and leave undisturbed for 1 minute.
Stage 8 - 5 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Use a wooden spatula to draw the egg from the edge in towards the centre of the pan.
Stage 9
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Continue doing this until there is no more liquid egg left.

Take off the heat immediately. It is normal, and desirable, for a little of the egg in the centre of the pan still to be not quite cooked.
Stage 10 - 3 min.
"Oeufs rabattus" with leeks
Transfer onto hot plates and garnish possibly with morteau sausage "crisps".
Remarks
Like in some omelette recipes, you can add a little cream to the beaten eggs if you wish, but it is not essential.
Keeping: Should be eaten immediately.
Source: Home made.
