Instructions

  1. In a bowl, beat the egg with water until well mixed.
  2. Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until melted, then coat the bottom of the pan with the melted butter.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting to spread evenly. Cook without stirring until the edges begin to set.
  4. Gently push cooked edges toward the center, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow into the empty space.
  5. When the egg is set and the bottom is light golden, sprinkle cheese over one half of the egg.
  6. Fold the omelet in half with a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to melt the cheese.
  7. Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.
