Omelette with cheese and herbs

Here's a simple and flavorful recipe for an Omelette with Cheese and Herbs:

Ingredients:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream (optional, for fluffier eggs)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
  • ¼ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • 1-2 tablespoons fresh herbs (chives, parsley, dill, or basil), finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the eggs:

    • Crack the eggs into a bowl.
    • Add the milk or cream (if using) and whisk together until smooth.
    • Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the pan:

    • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the butter or olive oil.
    • Let it melt and coat the pan.
  3. Cook the omelette:

    • Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
    • Let it cook undisturbed for a few seconds until the edges begin to set.
    • Gently lift the edges with a spatula, tilting the pan to let any uncooked egg flow underneath.
  4. Add cheese and herbs:

    • When the omelette is almost set (still a little runny on top), sprinkle the shredded cheese and fresh herbs over one half of the omelette.
  5. Fold and finish:

    • Carefully fold the omelette in half to cover the cheese and herbs.
    • Let it cook for another minute until the cheese melts and the omelette is fully set.
    • Slide the omelette onto a plate.
  6. Serve:

    • Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired and serve hot.

Optional Sides:

  • Toast or bread
  • Fresh salad or sliced tomatoes
