Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh herbs (optional, such as parsley or chives)
- 0.25 cup Chopped vegetables (optional, such as bell peppers, onions, or spinach)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a small mixing bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of water, salt, and pepper. Beat the eggs with a fork or whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
If using chopped vegetables, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the vegetables and sauté until softened, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the eggs evenly across the bottom.
As the eggs start to set around the edges, gently lift them with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue until the omelette is almost fully set but still slightly soft in the center.
If using sautéed vegetables and/or herbs, sprinkle them over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half by flipping the side without fillings over the filled half.
Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute until fully set and heated through.
Transfer the omelette to a plate, serve immediately, and enjoy your dairy-free meal.
