Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.5 medium yellow onion
- 0.5 cup mushrooms
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until the eggs and cream are combined and fluffy.
Slice the onion thinly and clean and slice the mushrooms.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and continue to sauté until the onions are caramelized and the mushrooms are golden brown, about 3-4 minutes more. Remove the onions and mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the butter and allow it to melt over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, moving it slightly to spread evenly across the bottom of the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for a minute until the edges start to set.
Once the eggs begin to set, sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
Add the sautéed onions and mushrooms on top of the cheese.
Fold the other half of the omelet over the filling using a spatula.
Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese has melted thoroughly.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
