Classic Omelette

Instructions

1. 1

   Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, season with salt and pepper, and beat them until they turn a pale yellow color.

2. 2

   Heat the butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat until melted and foamy.

3. 3

   Pour in the eggs and stir slowly with a spatula, bringing in the mixture from the edges to the center.

4. 4

   When the eggs start to set, stop stirring and let them cook for a few more seconds to form a light crust on the bottom.

5. 5

   If using cheese, sprinkle it on top of the omelette now.

6. 6

   Use the spatula to carefully fold one edge of the omelette over to the other side, enclosing the filling if used.

7. 7

   Let the omelette cook for another minute, then slide it onto a plate.

8. 8

   Garnish with chopped herbs if desired and serve immediately.
