Simple Omelette Recipe

Preparation time

• Total: Approximately 10 minutes
• Preparation: 5 minutes
• Cooking: 5 minutes

Ingredients

• 2-3 large eggs
• Salt, to taste
• Pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon of butter or oil
• Optional fillings: cheese, diced vegetables, cooked meats, herbs

Instructions

1. Beat the eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until they are well mixed. You can add a tablespoon of water or milk for a fluffier texture.
2. Heat the pan: Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add butter or oil.
3. Cook the omelette: Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour in the eggs. Tilt the pan to ensure the eggs evenly coat the surface.
4. Add fillings (optional): When the eggs begin to set at the edges but are still slightly runny in the center, add your chosen fillings.
5. Fold and serve: Fold the omelette in half or thirds using a spatula. Cook for another minute if necessary to melt the cheese or warm the fillings. Serve immediately.

Tips for Perfect Omelettes

• Use fresh eggs for the best flavor and texture.
• Don’t overbeat the eggs; mix just until combined.
• Cook on medium heat to avoid browning or burning the omelette.
• Experiment with different fillings to find your favorite combination.
