Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (optional, such as parsley or chives)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add the milk, salt, and pepper.
Whisk the eggs with a fork or a whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the butter.
Once the butter is melted and foaming, pour in the egg mixture.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1 minute or until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently draw the cooked edges toward the center of the pan, allowing any uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the cheese (if using) over one half of the omelette.
Continue to cook for another minute or until the cheese (if using) is melted and the eggs are fully set but not browned.
Using the spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half over the cheese to create a half-moon shape.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
