Chickpea flour is not only rich in fiber, which boosts our digestion, but also shines with lots of vegetable protein. Thus, the vegan omelet supports muscle building and maintenance. Plus point: The vegan version of the classic comes completely without cholesterol.

Kala Namak gives the vegan omelet the typical egg flavor. If you don't have the spice at home and don't want to buy it separately, you can season only with salt and pepper - then the egg flavor is not as intense, but it is still a delicious dish. Tomatoes, mushrooms and spinach can be replaced with other vegetables of your choice.
