Add cheese
Sprinkle 1 ounce shredded cheddar evenly over one half of the omelet while the top is still slightly wet so the cheese melts.

Fold omelet
Use the spatula to carefully fold the empty half of the omelet over the cheese-filled half, forming a semi-circle. Let cook for another 15–20 seconds to ensure cheese is melted and interior set but still tender.
