Tips:

Choose the right crab. Fresh crab meat is best, but you can also use canned or frozen crab meat. If using canned crab meat, be sure to rinse it well and drain it before using.
Use a variety of mushrooms. Different types of mushrooms will give your omelet different flavors and textures. Some good options include cremini mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and oyster mushrooms.
Don't overcook the eggs. An omelet should be cooked until the eggs are just set, but not dry. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
Season the omelet to taste. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Serve the omelet immediately. An omelet is best enjoyed hot out of the pan.
