1
Whisk the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the salt and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are well combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
2
Prepare the Cheese
Grate the cheddar cheese if not already grated and set aside.

3
Heat the Butter
In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it is bubbly but not browned.
4
Cook the Omelette
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs spread evenly. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
5
Add the Cheese
Once the edges of the omelette are set and the top is slightly runny, sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.
6
Fold and Finish Cooking
Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half over the cheese. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
7
Serve
Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half if desired, and serve warm.
