Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 cup fresh spinach
• 2 tablespoons sour cream
• 1 ounce grated cheese (e.g., cheddar or mozzarella)
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.125 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter, ensuring it coats the surface evenly.

Step 3

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1–2 minutes until the leaves are wilted. Remove the spinach from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Pour the beaten egg mixture into the skillet and allow it to cook undisturbed for about 1–2 minutes, or until the edges start to set.

Step 5

Gently lift the edges of the omelette with a spatula and tilt the skillet to let any uncooked egg flow to the edges for even cooking.

Step 6

Once the center is mostly set but still slightly soft, evenly layer the sautéed spinach and grated cheese over one-half of the omelette.

Step 7

Dollop the sour cream on top of the spinach and cheese, spreading it gently with the back of a spoon.

Step 8

Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling using a spatula and let it cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the cheese is melted and the omelette is fully set.

Step 9

Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately while hot.
