Preparation time
- Total: Approximately 10 minutes
- Preparation: 5 minutes
- Cooking: 5 minutes
Ingredients
2-3 large eggs
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon of butter or oil
Optional fillings: cheese, diced vegetables, cooked meats, herbs
Instructions
- Beat the eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until they are
well
mixed.
You can add a tablespoon of water or milk for a fluffier texture.
- Heat the pan: Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add butter or oil.
- Cook the omelette:
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour in the eggs. Tilt the pan to ensure
the eggs evenly coat the surface.
- Add fillings (optional): When the eggs begin to set at the edges but are still slightly
runny
in the
middle, sprinkle your chosen fillings over one half of the omelette.
- Fold and serve: As the omelette continues to cook, carefully lift one edge and fold it over
the
fillings. Let it cook for another minute, then slide it onto a plate.
- Enjoy: Serve hot, with additional salt and pepper if needed.
