Stir in the turmeric, cumin, salt, and black pepper until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom is set and slightly golden.

Step 7

Gently flip the omelette with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the other side is set and cooked through.
