Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 1 small can (about 85g) canned tuna
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and set it aside.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the pan evenly.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it spreads evenly across the surface.

Step 5

As the edges of the omelette begin to set, use a spatula to slightly lift them, allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath.

Step 6

Once the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, evenly distribute the drained tuna over one half of the omelette.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the tuna layer.

Step 8

Drizzle the ketchup over the cheese layer to taste.

Step 9

Gently fold the unfilled half of the omelette over the filled side using a spatula. Press down gently to seal.

Step 10

Let the omelette cook for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the cheese melts and the omelette is cooked through.

Step 11

Gently slide the omelette onto a plate and serve warm.
