Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the ham, tomato, onion, and green pepper into small pieces. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until fully blended. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and green pepper and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they are softened.

  4. 4

    Add Ham and Tomato

    Add the chopped ham and tomato to the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Pour in the Eggs

    Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the cooked vegetables and ham in the skillet. Allow to cook for about 3-4 minutes, gently lifting the edges to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.

  6. 6

    Add Cheese

    Once the eggs are mostly set, sprinkle the shredded cheese on top. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Slide the omelette onto a plate, fold it in half, and serve warm.
