Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large egg whites
- 2 large whole eggs
- 2 tablespoons low-fat milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, crack the 4 large egg whites and 2 whole eggs. Add the low-fat milk, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the egg mixture thoroughly until it is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it evenly.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette and tilt the pan to allow any uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
Fold the omelette in half with the spatula and let it cook for an additional minute to ensure the center is fully cooked.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
