¼ cup honey
1 cup flour
1 tbsp seasoned salt
1 tbsp garlic salt
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2-3 cups vegetable oil

2. Place flour on a large plate and set aside.
3. Coat frying pan with vegetable oil, and heat over a medium flame.
4. Combine and briskly stir the eggs, buttermilk and honey until ingredients are
evenly mixed. NOTE: Mixture should have the same consistency as syrup.

pepper and cayenne pepper.

off.

Lobster, Avocado & Brie Omelet
INGREDIENTS:
1 large egg
¼ cup milk

1 tsp pepper

¼ cup brie cheese
¼ of an avocado
PROCEDURE
