Ingredients
Omelet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp chopped onions
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp grated cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Heat butter: Heat butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat to ensure it melts evenly without burning.
- Sauté vegetables: Add the chopped onions and sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 2 minutes until they are softened and fragrant.
- Prepare egg mixture: In a bowl, whisk the eggs together with salt and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Pour eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the pan over the sautéed mushrooms and onions, spreading evenly across the pan.
- Cook omelet base: Let the eggs cook undisturbed until the edges start to set. Gently lift the edges with a spatula and tilt the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to flow underneath for even cooking.
- Add cheese and fold: Sprinkle grated cheese over one side of the omelet, if using, then fold the omelet in half carefully using the spatula.
- Finish cooking: Cook for another minute to let the cheese melt and omelet finish cooking, then slide onto a plate and serve warm.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet for easy cooking and folding of the omelet.
- Feel free to customize with your favorite herbs or additional vegetables.
- For a fluffier omelet, whisk the eggs vigorously to incorporate more air.
- Adjust cooking time slightly for desired doneness.
