Ingredients

• 3 pieces Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pinch Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese
• 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Grate or shred the cheddar cheese if it’s not pre-shredded, and set it aside.

Step 3

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and vegetable oil to the pan, and swirl to coat the surface evenly.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and slightly foamy, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, allowing the edges to set.

Step 5

Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette and tilt the skillet so the uncooked egg mixture flows underneath. Repeat this process around the edges as needed.

Step 6

When the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on the surface, sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.

Step 7

Fold the other half of the omelette over the cheese to create a half-moon shape. Continue cooking for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is fully set.

Step 8

Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your classic omelette!
