A $1000 omlette

'The zillion dollar omlette.'听
Emile Castillo, the Executive Chef of听Norma's restaurant in Le Parker Meridien Hotel, has developed an extrodinary new recipe. The听鈥榋illion Dollar Frittata鈥櫶齣s听not just your average egg mix - it's a culinary delight which听will set听you back听$1000.

Here is the听recipe - for those with expensive taste.

Ingredients:

6 eggs
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 陆 tablespoons butter
1 lobster
5 tablespoons heavy cream
10 ounces sevruga caviar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Place the whole lobster in a pot of boiling water. Boil for one minute, and then put lobster in a bath of cold water. Remove tail from lobster and pry meat from shell, keeping it whole. Remove meat from claws and chop the meat. Cut the lobster in half and remove the tomalley or liver (which is the soft, blackish-green part located in the stomach).

Heat 陆 tablespoon of butter in a small saucepan. Add heavy cream and bring to a boil. Cook three minutes while stirring. Strain sauce into a bowl and set aside.

Break eggs into a bowl. Add chives and half of the sauce and beat with a fork.

In an omelette pan, heat 陆 tablespoon butter. Add chopped claw meat and saut茅 for two minutes.

Add the egg and chive mixture. Cook slowly over medium heat until firm, about five minutes.

While the omelette is cooking, in another saucepan heat 陆 tablespoon butter and cook the lobster tail for three minutes. Slice and arrange on top of the omelette and finish cooking in the oven two more minutes.

Place the cooked omelette on a serving plate. We suggest your best china. Spoon the remaining sauce over the omelette. Spoon caviar on top and serve.

Enjoy your meal!
