Ingredients:
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2/3 cup cold water
2 teaspoons lemon juice
3 apples (peeled, cored, and cut in 2-inch thick wedges)
2 tablespoons margarine
3 fully cooked smoked sausage links (sliced diagonally optional)
4 egg whites
2 tablespoons water
¼ teaspoon egg yolks
1 tablespoon margarine
Directions:
To prepare sauce, combine brown sugar and cornstarch in saucepan. Stir in the 2/3 cup cold water and lemon
juice. Cook quickly, stirring constantly, till thickened and bubbly. Add apples; stir gently. Cover and simmer
gently for 3 to 5 minutes or till apples are tender. Add the 2 tablespoons margarine and sausage. Stir till
butter melts and sausage is hot; keep warm.
To prepare omelet, beat egg whites till frothy; add water and salt. Beat egg whites till stiff peaks form. Beat
egg yolks till very thick and lemon-colored. Gently fold yolks into whites. Heat the 1 tablespoon butter in 10-inch
oven-proof skillet till a drop of water sizzles when dropped atop. Pour in egg mixture and spread evenly with
spatula, mounding higher at sides. Cook over low heat for 8 to 10 minutes or till lightly browned.
Bake in 325° oven for 8 to 10 minutes or till knife inserted near center comes out clean. Loosen sides of
omelet with spatula. Make a shallow cut across omelet, cutting slightly off-center so that the two portions are
unequal. Fold smaller portion over larger portion. Using spatula, slip omelet onto hot serving platter.
Set aside 2 cup of the apple mixture. Unfold omelet and spoon remaining apple mixture across center; re-fold. Pour
the reserved apple mixture atop.
