Cousa Omelet (Ijjie Cousa)

Either use grated cousa or if you have hollowed out the cousa to stuff, use the insides for this dish.

Ingredients

3 large eggs beaten
1 cup chopped white onion
3/4 cup grated cousa or the hollowed out part, squeeze out the moisture first
1/2 teaspoon salt
shake of pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
olive oil for frying

Directions

In a bowl, combine all the ingredients except the oil. Be sure to squeeze out the moisture in the cousa before adding to the beaten eggs.
Pour olive oil into skillet, so it covers bottom of pan and heat.
Pour the egg mixture into skillet once the oil is hot.
Once the egg is browned on one side, cut the omelet
in half and with a spatula, flip it over to brown on the other side.
Serve right away with pita bread.
