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 they are 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 ensure the eggs evenly
coat the surface.
-
Add fillings (optional): When the eggs begin to
set at the edges but are still slightly runny in the middle,
sprinkle your chosen fillings over one half of the omelette.
-
Fold and serve: As the omelette continues to
cook, carefully lift one edge and fold it over the fillings. Let
it cook for another minute, then slide it onto a plate.
-
Enjoy: Serve hot, with additional salt and pepper
if needed.
