Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk or unsalted plant-based milk
• 1 teaspoon unsalted butter or olive oil
• 1 pinch black pepper
• 2 tablespoons onions, finely chopped (optional)
• 2 tablespoons bell peppers, finely chopped (optional)
• 1 teaspoon fresh parsley or chives, chopped (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack two large eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the milk and a pinch of black pepper, and whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy (about 30-60 seconds).

Step 2

If adding optional vegetables, prepare them by finely chopping onions and bell peppers. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter or olive oil. Swirl the pan to ensure the entire surface is evenly coated.

Step 4

If using optional vegetables, sauté the chopped onions and bell peppers in the skillet for 1-2 minutes or until they begin to soften. Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan slightly to ensure an even layer. Gently stir the eggs with a spatula for the first 15-20 seconds as they begin to set.

Step 6

Spread the eggs into a flat, even layer, and allow them to cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes or until the edges begin to lift easily from the skillet.

Step 7

Carefully fold one side of the omelette over the other using a spatula. Alternatively, you can fold it in thirds for a classic presentation.

Step 8

Gently slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with freshly chopped parsley or chives, if desired. Serve immediately.
