Ingredients

• 3 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup white button mushrooms
• 1 quarter cup grated cheese (such as cheddar or Gruyere)
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the mushrooms: Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel, then slice them thinly.

Step 2

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt half of the butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well-blended.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium-low heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.

Step 5

Let the eggs cook without stirring for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to set. Using a spatula, gently spread the mushrooms and grated cheese over one half of the omelette.

Step 6

Continue cooking for about 3-4 more minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked but still tender.

Step 7

Carefully fold the omelette in half over the filling using a spatula. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the inside is heated through.

Step 8

Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with chopped chives if desired, and serve hot.
