Instructions
- In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs to break up the white and the yolk.
- Over a medium heat, heat pan. Add butter and melt.
- Once butter is melted, add eggs, stirring constantly just until eggs begin to set. Adjust heat if necessary, turning it to medium low if eggs cook too quickly.
- Once eggs have begun to set, add cheese and any fillings in a row perpendicular to the handle of the pan.
- Using the spatula, gently begin to roll the eggs away from you while tipping the pan down. Ideally the omelette will roll onto itself in thirds.
- Roll onto plate and brush the top of the omelette with butter if desired.
Notes
- Make sure all ingredients are ready before making the omelette.
- Use a well greased or non-stick carbon omelette pan.
- Monitor the heat, adjusting the temperature if the omelette is cooking too quickly.
- 2 eggs per person is standard. 3 for hearty appetites.
