Optional Add-ins

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them thoroughly with the milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    If using optional add-ins, chop the bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms into small pieces. Set them aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it starts to bubble and coat the bottom of the pan.

  2. 4

    Cook the Omelette

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure even coverage. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to set.

  3. 5

    Add the Cheese and Optional Ingredients

    Sprinkle your choice of cheese on one half of the omelette. If using optional add-ins, scatter them over the cheese.

  4. 6

    Fold and Finish Cooking

    Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the cheese and any additional ingredients. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate and Serve

    Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately, optionally garnished with additional black pepper or herbs.
