Fresh herbs have a way of changing how a meal feels. This Persian-inspired green omelette leans into that idea, folding generous amounts of parsley, cilantro, dill, and green onion into softly set eggs—with just enough cumin and turmeric to add warmth and depth. It comes together easily in one pan, and serves four comfortably. It’s a flavorful dish without being fussy—the kind of meal that feels thoughtful any time of day.
Persian Herb Green Omelette
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- ½ cup green onions, finely chopped
- ½ cup parsley, finely chopped, loosely packed
- ½ cup cilantro, finely chopped, loosely packed
- ½ cup dill, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼¼ teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1 small white onion, finely grated
Method
Step 1
Beat eggs in a large bowl, then add the chopped herbs, salt, pepper, cumin, and turmeric.
Step 2
Warm 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the grated onions and cook until translucent.
Step 3
Add the egg mixture to the skillet and combine well with the onions. Increase heat to high and cook for 1 minute.
Step 4
Turn the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes until the mixture is no longer runny but not completely set.
Step 5
Turn the oven on to a high broil. Uncover the skillet and place it on the top shelf of the oven. Broil just until eggs are set and golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your oven.
Step 6
To serve, cut omelette into triangular slices and use a spatula to plate.

Virtually every cell in the body depends on cellular energy to thrive. With age, however, the energy produced by cells declines, creating an energy gap that hits our body every day. We may feel this as fatigue, muscle weakness, slower recovery or countless other "age-related" concerns. Narrowing the energy gap is the key to healthy longevity, and a top priority for me. This is where Timeline powered by Mitopure stands out.
Mitopure fills the energy gap by replacing the cellular energy generators that breakdown with age. Imagine replacing a burnt-out light bulb with a bright new one. In research, Mitopure increased renewal of cellular energy generators by 39% after four months, and participants experienced a 12% increase in muscle strength without changing their exercise routine — a reflection of more efficient cellular energy.
That’s why I take Mitopure every day — to support cellular energy as part of my long-term healthy aging strategy. Try it for yourself with a free 3-day starter kit.
