1/4 cup (about) olive oil
3 cups finely shredded cabbage
1 medium leek, trimmed and thinly sliced
6 large eggs
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper

1 In a 9-inch nonstick heavy skillet, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium-low heat. Stir in the cabbage and leek. Cover the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is very tender, about 30 minutes. Let cool.

2 In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, cheese, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the vegetable mixture.

3 Lightly brush a griddle or a large nonstick skillet with oil. Heat over medium heat.

4 Stir the egg mixture and scoop by 1/4 cupful onto the griddle, spacing the omelets about 4 inches apart. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon. Cook until the eggs are set and the omelets begin to brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. With a pancake turner, flip the omelets and cook on the other side for about 1 minute more. Transfer the omelets to a plate.

5 Cook the remaining omelets in the same way. Serve hot or at room temperature.
