Ingredients

• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Whole milk
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups Gruyère cheese (shredded)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk everything together until smooth and fully combined.

Step 2

Prepare the cheese by shredding the Gruyère (or your preferred cheese) and set it aside.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, making sure it evenly coats the pan.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and begins to sizzle slightly, reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the bottom begins to set.

Step 5

Gently use a spatula to lift the edges of the omelette, allowing the uncooked egg mixture to flow underneath. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly creamy on top.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the omelette. Let it cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, allowing the cheese to start melting.

Step 7

Using a spatula, carefully fold the un-cheesed half of the omelette over the cheesed half to create a half-moon shape.

Step 8

Cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute until the cheese is fully melted and the omelette is golden on the bottom.

Step 9

Slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
