Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 0.5 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Finely chop the fresh parsley and set aside.

Step 3

Preheat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt, making sure it coats the entire surface of the pan.

Step 4

Once the butter is hot and bubbling, pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1 minute.

Step 5

As the edges begin to set, use a spatula to gently push the edges toward the center while tilting the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.

Step 6

When the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.

Step 7

Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula.

Step 8

Allow it to cook for an additional 30 seconds to let the cheese melt and the omelette to finish setting.

Step 9

Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with the chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
