Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms into small pieces. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add milk. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.

  3. 3

    Season the Egg Mixture

    Add salt, black pepper, and paprika to the egg mixture and whisk again to combine.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a non-stick skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

  2. 5

    Add Ham

    Stir in the cooked ham and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.

  3. 6

    Add Egg Mixture

    Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables and ham in the skillet. Allow to cook undisturbed for about 3-4 minutes, until the edges begin to set.

  4. 7

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top of the omelette. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully cooked.

  5. 8

    Fold and Serve

    Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half. Slide it onto a plate and serve hot.
