Omelette

Also called: omelet, omelette, masala omelette

Eggs cooked soft in a little fat — nourishing and grounding for Vata.

How Omelette affects your doshas

In Ayurveda a food's effect depends on your constitution. This is the lens the app uses to suggest what to favour and ease off.

Effect of Omelette on each dosha
DoshaSuitabilityNotes
Vata Balancing Calms Vata — favour it when Vata runs high.
Pitta Use sparingly Can raise Pitta — go easy when Pitta runs high.
Kapha Neutral Broadly neutral for Kapha.

Taste: Sweet, Salty  ·  Potency: Heating (uṣṇa)  ·  Post-digestive: Pungent  ·  Qualities: Heavy, Oily

When to go easy

Eggs are heating and building, so a large cheesy omelette can add to Pitta and Kapha.
