Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 fresh eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon milk or cream (optional)

Fillings (optional)

  • Cheese (cheddar, feta, goat cheese, or your choice)
  • Sautéed mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes (for vegetarian variations)
  • Cooked bacon, ham, or sausage
  • Fresh herbs such as dill, chives, parsley, or basil

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and chop any fillings into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking and ease of folding.
  2. Beat the Eggs Thoroughly: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk vigorously until smooth and slightly frothy, creating the desired fluffy texture.
  3. Heat the Pan Properly: Warm a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add butter or oil and let it melt evenly without browning to keep the cooking environment gentle.
  4. Pour and Cook the Eggs: Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and let them cook undisturbed for a few seconds until edges start to set but the center remains soft.
  5. Add Fillings: Sprinkle your chosen fillings over half of the omelette once the base is mostly firm but the top is still slightly runny.
  6. Fold and Finish Cooking: Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula, then cook for another 30 seconds to melt cheese or warm fillings.
  7. Serve Promptly: Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately to enjoy it at its fluffiest and warmest.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for better texture and taste.
  • Whisk eggs just until combined to avoid a tough omelette.
  • Cook over medium-low heat to prevent browning and keep the omelette tender.
  • Use a non-stick pan for easy flipping and folding.
  • Season eggs with salt before cooking for balanced flavor.
