Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 60 grams smoked salmon
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon cream (or milk)
- 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 for garnish lemon wedge
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk them together with the cream (or milk), salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Finely chop the fresh dill and chives, setting aside a small amount of each for garnish.
Cut the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the unsalted butter, ensuring the pan is evenly coated.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it evenly. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the chopped dill, chives, and smoked salmon evenly over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the omelet is cooked through but still soft and creamy inside.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with the reserved dill and chives, and serve with a lemon wedge on the side.
