EASY OMELETTE RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE A BASIC TWO EGG OMELETTE

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, season with salt and pepper and beat the mixture with a fork or whisk.
• Heat a medium sized pan over a medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt. Swirl the butter around the base of the pan to coat evenly.
• Add the egg mixture to the pan and as it begins to cook, use a spatula to push cooked parts from the edge to the centre of the pan. As you do this, tilt and rotate the pan to allow the uncooked egg mixture to flow into empty spaces.
• When the eggs are almost set on the surface but still look moist, slide the spatula under one side of the omelette and fold over in half to create a semi-circle. If you want to add extra fillings like cheese, ham or mushroom, do so before folding the omelette in half and only sprinkle them over one side of the omelette. Then flip the unfilled side over onto the filled half.
• Let the folded omelette cook for a further minute (less if you like the centre soft and a little runny, or more if you like it cooked through), then slide it out of the pan and onto a plate. Serve and eat immediately.

PUFFED CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Combine the mascarpone, chives and garlic, rosemary and sage (if including) and set aside.
• Place the egg yolks, cream, salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk until they are combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks then gently fold through the egg yolk mixture.
• Heat the butter in a 20cm/8 inch non-stick pan over a medium heat; pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook for 5 minutes; sprinkle with the parmesan and cheddar; spread the mascarpone mixture onto one side of the omelet and carefully fold over to enclose the filling; cook for a further 1-2 minutes; sprinkle with parmesan and serve.
