    1/3 cup water
    1/2 tsp. salt

    In same skillet, in 1 Tbsp. oil, cook mushrooms until golden in color.


    Remove to another bowl; keep warm.


    In the same skillet over medium heat, heat 2 Tbsp. salad oil. Pour egg mixture into skillet; cook until set around edges.


    With metal spatula, gently lift edge as it sets, tilting to allow uncooked portion to run under the omelet. Shake skillet occasionally to keep omelet moving freely in the pan.

    Top with mushrooms. Garnish platter with parsley sprigs and tomato wedges.
