Ingredients
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 eggs
1/4 cup chopped vegetables (such as bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, spinach, or tomatoes)
1 tbsp milk
1 tbsp butter or oil
Optional: grated cheese, herbs, or spices of your choice
Directions
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter or oil.
- Once the butter has melted or the oil is hot, add the vegetables and cook until they are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges start to set.
- Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelette and let any uncooked egg run underneath.
- Once the top of the omelette is almost set, sprinkle any grated cheese, herbs, or spices you want over one side of the omelette.
- Use the spatula to carefully fold the other side of the omelette over the side with the toppings, creating a half-moon shape.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese has melted and the eggs are fully cooked.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot.
