Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs, and whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 2
Prepare your cheese and optional chives, setting them aside for later.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt, swirling it around to coat the pan evenly.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Tilt the pan to spread the eggs evenly over the surface.
Step 5
As the edges begin to set, use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelette and allow the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges. Repeat until the omelette is mostly set with a slight wetness on top.
Step 6
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over half of the omelette and let it melt slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 7
Using the spatula, fold the omelette in half to encase the cheese. Cook for another 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness.
Step 8
Slide the omelette out of the skillet onto a plate, garnish with chopped chives if using, and serve immediately.
