Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and black pepper, and whisk until fully combined. Chop the green onions and set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.

  3. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to distribute them evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Onions

    Once the edges start to set, sprinkle the cheddar cheese and green onions on one half of the omelette.

  5. 5

    Fold and Serve

    Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Cook for another minute, then slide it onto a plate and serve hot.
