Ratatouille is the 2007 Disney·Pixar movie about a rat who dreams of being a chef in Paris; its ride, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, is at Epcot’s France pavilion and Disneyland Paris. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of a dish from the movie or the pavilion, not an official recipe.
French omelettes are cooked gently so they stay soft and pale yellow instead of brown. Low heat and a little patience are the whole secret.
Make it a learning moment: count how many eggs a family eats in a week. A hen lays roughly one egg a day.
