Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 100 grams plant-based ham slices
• 50 grams grated cheese
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chopped chives

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

Step 2

Add the milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs and whisk again to incorporate fully.

Step 3

Chop the plant-based ham slices into small pieces, roughly 1 cm in size.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil and butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Once the butter has melted and begins to sizzle, add the chopped plant-based ham to the skillet. Sauté them for about 2-3 minutes, until they are slightly crispy.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it covers the entire base evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly over the surface of the eggs.

Step 8

Use a spatula to gently push the edges of the omelette towards the center while tilting the pan to allow uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.

Step 9

Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the chopped chives evenly over the omelette.

Step 10

Fold the omelette in half with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the omelette is cooked to your desired level.

Step 11

Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot.
