Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh herbs (like parsley or chives), optional
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs.
Beat the egg mixture thoroughly with a fork or whisk until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, letting them spread out to cover the entire bottom.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
Gently run a spatula around the edges of the omelette to ensure it does not stick to the pan.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
Loosen the edges of the omelette with a spatula and fold it in half over the cheese to create a half-moon shape.
Let the omelette cook for an additional minute, allowing the cheese to melt completely.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate. Sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs if desired.
Serve immediately for best results, accompanied by toast, salad, or fresh fruit.
