Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup shredded cheese (optional, e.g., cheddar or gruyere)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (optional, e.g., parsley or chives)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and pepper.
Whisk the eggs vigorously with a fork or whisk until the mixture is pale yellow and frothy. This ensures a light and airy omelet.
Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling it around the pan to evenly coat the surface.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for about 10-15 seconds until the edges begin to set.
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the edges of the omelet toward the center of the pan while tilting the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges. Repeat this process until the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
If using, sprinkle the shredded cheese and fresh herbs over one half of the omelet.
Carefully fold the omelet in half using the spatula. Let it cook for an additional 20-30 seconds to melt the cheese and finish cooking the eggs.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired.
