Best Easy Omelette Recipe

Step 1

Heat the oil in a pan (non stick if possible) on a medium heat.

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a bowl and mix well.

Step 3

Pour the egg mix into the pan.

Step 4

Using a spatula, ruffle the omelette so it doesn't stick.

Step 5

Let it cook for about 3 minutes.

Step 6

Here's the important part: when the egg mixture looks nearly cooked (but there's still just a tiny bit of runny egg left) drop on the cheese, if using.

Step 7

Fold one half of the omelette on top of the other.

Step 8

Slide it on to a plate - the heat from closing the omelette will finish cooking the inside.

Step 9

Season with salt and pepper (be sure to do this after cooking - the flavour comes out so much more!).

Step 10

Enjoy your perfect omelette.
