Ingredients
  

For the Fluffiest Omelette
  • 3 large eggs they are the star of the show and bring all that fluffiness!
  • 1 tbsp milk or cream this adds richness and helps fluff up the eggs.
  • 1 tbsp butter for cooking and adding a lovely flavor.
  • Fresh herbs optional, for garnish

Equipment

  • Non-stick Skillet
  • Bowl
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy. This step is crucial for getting that fluffy texture!
  2. Step 2: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
  3. Step 3: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set. Patience is key here!
  4. Step 4: Using a spatula, gently fold the edges of the omelette towards the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges. This will help cook the omelette evenly.
  5. Step 5: Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the omelette is set but still slightly soft in the center. You want it to be tender!
  6. Step 6: Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate, folding it in half if desired. Garnish with fresh herbs, if using, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

If you have leftovers, store any uneaten portions in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep for about 2 days.
