for the sauce
Grate half a courgette into a bowl. Add one egg, a pinch of salt, and 50g of grated mozzarella cheese. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
Heat a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Pour the courgette mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly. Cover with a lid and cook for 3-4 minutes until the edges are set and the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the omelette using a plate or a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
While the omelette is cooking, mash half an avocado in a small bowl until smooth. You can add a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.
Once the omelette is cooked, slide it onto a plate. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the top of the omelette.
Arrange the slices of cooked ham over the avocado sauce. Sprinkle with a pinch of dried oregano for extra flavour.
Cut the omelette into wedges and serve immediately.
For an extra flavour boost, add a pinch of black pepper or chilli flakes to the courgette mixture before cooking.
If you don't have cooked ham, you can substitute it with smoked salmon, grilled chicken, or even a fried egg for added protein.
To make the avocado sauce even creamier, blend it with a tablespoon of Greek yoghurt or a splash of milk.
