Omelette Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 1 tablespoon milk (optional, for fluffiness)
- 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the eggs: Crack the eggs into a bowl, add milk if using, and whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preference.
- Heat the pan: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter or olive oil. Allow it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
- Sauté the spinach: Add the chopped spinach to the heated skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted and tender.
- Cook the eggs: Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the sautéed spinach in the skillet. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, gently lifting the edges with a spatula to allow the uncooked eggs to flow underneath for even cooking.
- Add the cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the surface of the omelette. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully set.
- Fold and serve: Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula. Slide it onto a plate and serve hot for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- You can use any cheese variety you like, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend, to customize flavor.
- Adding milk to the eggs is optional but helps make the omelette fluffier.
- For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like chives or parsley.
- Ensure the skillet is non-stick to prevent the omelette from sticking and breaking.
- Serve immediately for optimal texture and taste.
