2. Add sour cream to the mass. You can add salt or sugar if you wish. Depending on whether you want to get a dish: sweet or salty. In this recipe, prunes are added, so you can add sugar or honey. But if instead of dried plums you put mushrooms or ham, then salt the egg mass.

Place the lid on the omelet and steam for 10 minutes. Then turn off the heat and do not touch the omelet for another 5 minutes.
