A microwave omelette is the ultimate fast snack. It takes just minutes to prep and cook and you can adapt the recipe by changing the veg, herbs and cheese.

Provided by Elaine Lemm

Categories     Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tsp salted butter
1 tsp shallot
2 eggs
1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
1 tbsp sweet red pointed pepper, finely diced
1 tbsp chives, chopped
1 tbsp mature cheddar, grated

Steps:

  • Put the butter and chopped shallot into a microwavable mug. Cook for 30 seconds, remove from the microwave and stir. Let the mug cool down a little, then swish the butter and shallot around the mug to coat the sides lightly.
  • In a bowl or jug, beat the eggs with a fork, then add the parsley, peppers, chives, cheese and a small pinch each of salt and black pepper.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the mug and return it to the microwave, cook for 20 seconds. Next, open the microwave and stir the egg, repeat the cooking for 20 seconds and stir again. Finally, cook for another 20 seconds, during which time the egg will start to set.
  • Remove the mug from the microwave and let it stand for 1 min. If the omelette is not set enough for you, put it back in on 50% power for no more than 20 seconds.

Tips:

1. Use a large enough cup: The omelette will expand while cooking, so make sure to use a cup that is at least 12 ounces in size. 2. Don't overcook the omelette: Cooking times will vary depending on the power of your microwave, so start with a shorter cooking time and increase it gradually as needed. An overcooked omelette will be tough and rubbery. 3. Use a fork to whisk the eggs: This will help to create a light and fluffy omelette. 4. Add your favorite fillings: Cheese, ham, vegetables, and herbs are all great additions to an omelette. 5. Use caution when removing the omelette from the microwave: The cup will be hot, so use a pot holder or oven mitt to protect your hands.

Conclusion:

A microwave omelette is a quick and easy breakfast or lunch option. It's also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a little practice, you'll be able to make a perfect microwave omelette every time. So next time you're short on time, give this recipe a try.
