Clean and slice the button mushrooms into thin pieces.
Heat half of the butter (5 grams) in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown and tender, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat the remaining butter (5 grams) in the skillet over medium-low heat. Once melted, pour in the beaten egg mixture, tilting the pan to ensure it spreads evenly.
Cook the eggs gently, running a spatula around the edges to loosen them and tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top (about 3-4 minutes), add the sautéed mushrooms and crumbled pâté to one half of the omelette.
Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling using a spatula. Allow it to cook for another minute to melt the pâté slightly and warm the filling.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
