Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons white wine
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 1 ounce cheese (Gruyère, Brie, or your choice)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Add the white wine, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs, and whisk to incorporate.
Finely dice or shred the cheese of your choice and set it aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter until it bubbles slightly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs cover the base evenly.
Cook the eggs gently, using a spatula to push the cooked edges toward the center while tilting the pan to let uncooked egg flow to the edges.
Once the eggs are mostly set but slightly runny on top, sprinkle the cheese evenly over half of the omelet.
Using the spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half, covering the cheese, and let it cook for another 30-60 seconds until the cheese begins to melt.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
