Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheese (optional)
- 0.25 cups chopped vegetables (optional, e.g., bell peppers, onions, mushrooms)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the mixture vigorously until the eggs are fully blended and slightly frothy.
If using vegetables, pre-chop them into small, even pieces.
Heat a non-stick or lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, coating the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, or until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet while tilting the skillet to allow the uncooked egg to flow beneath.
If adding cheese or vegetables, sprinkle them evenly over one side of the omelet.
Once the omelet is mostly set but still slightly soft on top, carefully fold it in half using the spatula.
Cook for an additional 30-60 seconds to ensure the cheese melts and the filling is warm.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy!
