Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 ounces Brie cheese
• 1 cup white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Separate the egg yolks and whites into two bowls. Set the whites aside to bring to room temperature while preparing the filling.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until caramelized.

Step 3

Add the mushrooms to the skillet with the onions and sauté for another 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are golden and tender. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

Whisk the egg yolks with the milk and a pinch of salt until smooth.

Step 5

Using a clean mixing bowl and electric hand mixer, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.

Step 6

Gently fold the egg yolks into the whipped egg whites, using a spatula to maintain as much air as possible.

Step 7

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter, making sure to coat the pan evenly.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and spread it out evenly. Reduce heat to low and cover the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the bottom is set but the top is still slightly wobbly.

Step 9

Add the Brie slices evenly across one half of the omelet, followed by the mushroom and onion mixture.

Step 10

Using a spatula, carefully fold the empty half of the omelet over the filling. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, until the Brie is melted and the omelet is cooked through.

Step 11

Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
