This dish is AWESOME !!!
I love it and you will taste one of the best preparations, made just following my instruction.
Ingredients: (6 portions but you’ll hope to eat it all alone, believe me!)
Prawns or Shrimps,fresh and already cleaned, 1 pound (half kilo)
Garlic three cloves
three whole fresh Eggs
Parmesan or Pecorino grounded cheese appx. one pound (400 grams)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil half glass
Salt
cut the Garlic in small pieces
fry the Garlic with a quarter of glass of oil
as the Garlic fades, drop the Prawns in to the frying pan
all the Prawns down !
add a pinch of salt (2 to 4 grams) to the Prawns and cook them well,
please note that the quantity of salt depends from the cheese you will use, I love “pecorino” !!!
as the Prawns are cooked move them in to a clean bowl (bastardella)

add the three eggs to the prawns
now you have to mix well
add the 400 grams of grounded seasoned cheese and mix all together very well,
use only a seasoned cheese like Pecorino or Parmesan,
do not use fresh or creamy cheese or your omelet will break!

add the rest of the oil to a clean frying pan and let it to become hot
now drop the mix in the frying pan,
drop it all and do not stir, simply move the pan to make the omelet circular sized
let it cook (10-15 minutes) then check the consistence

as you see that the omelet is solid enough drop it in a plate (I prefer a pan-cover because it has the handle which helps me to turn upside down the omelet)
this operation is delicate, avoid to break the omelet working easy and slowly
turn the omelet upside down in to the frying pan again
let it cook again for 5-10 minutes, checking the consistence, when the omelet is hard enough pass it in to a plate
now you can eat the Shrimps Omelet………WELCOME IN PARADISE !!!
