Simple Omelette Recipe
An easy and quick dish, perfect for any meal. This classic omelette combines beaten eggs cooked to perfection, optionally filled with your choice of cheese, vegetables, or meats.
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
- Beat the eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until well mixed. You can add a tablespoon of water or milk for a fluffier texture.
- Heat the pan: Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add butter or oil.
- Cook the omelette: Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour in the eggs. Tilt the pan to spread them evenly. As the eggs begin to set, use a spatula to gently push the edges toward the center, letting uncooked eggs flow to the edges.
- Add fillings (optional): When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle your desired fillings over one half of the omelette.
- Fold and serve: Carefully fold the omelette in half and slide it onto a plate. Serve immediately.
