Omelette Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
Prepare the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add salt and pepper. Whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt and foam, but do not let it brown.
Add Fillings
Once the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle with fresh herbs and cheese, if using. Fold the omelette in half.
Finish Cooking
Let the omelette cook for another minute or so until the cheese melts and the inside is just set. Slide the omelette onto a plate.
Serve
Serve your French omelette warm, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
