It's porcini season, but chanterelles are still around. While walking my dog, I found almost a kilo of them in just 5 square meters! Perfect timing, we love them! A chanterelle omelet is ideal for a quick meal. It takes only a few minutes to prepare and is perfect for lunch or dinner. The only tricky part is cleaning the mushrooms. Normally, you should clean them gently without soaking them in water. But at the risk of being corrected by mushroom experts, I simply remove the earthy ends and leaves, rinse them under water, and then dry them on a clean cloth. And frankly, it's perfect. Serve the omelet warm with a green salad. This gluten-free dish is a true autumn delight.
