Ingredients
Scale
Omelette
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 1 tablespoon milk (optional, for fluffiness)
- 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the egg mixture: Crack the eggs into a bowl, add milk if using, and whisk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
- Heat the pan: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add butter or olive oil, letting it melt and coat the pan evenly.
- Sauté the spinach: Add the chopped fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted, enhancing the flavor and softening the greens.
- Add eggs to the pan: Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the spinach in the skillet, allowing the eggs to spread out and start cooking.
- Cook the omelette base: Let the eggs cook for 1-2 minutes, gently lifting the edges to allow any uncooked egg to flow underneath for even cooking.
- Add cheese and finish cooking: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the omelette and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully set.
- Fold and serve: Fold the omelette in half carefully and slide it onto a plate. Serve hot for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use any cheese of your choice such as cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend for varied flavors.
- For a fluffier omelette, adding milk is optional but recommended.
- Ensure the pan is not too hot to avoid burning the eggs; medium heat works best.
- Spinach can be substituted with other greens like kale or arugula if preferred.
- This recipe serves one but can be easily doubled or tripled.
