Three Cheese Omelette Recipes

CLASSIC CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Combine eggs and milk in bowl; beat with fork or whisk until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
• Melt butter in 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling; pour egg mixture into hot skillet. Cook 30 seconds or until bottom is set. Run heat proof spatula around edge of pan, lifting edges of eggs and allowing uncooked portions to flow underneath. Tilt pan, if necessary. Continue cooking, lifting eggs as needed, 1-2 minutes or until almost set.
• Remove from heat. Sprinkle cheese over half of omelet. Carefully fold other side of omelet over cheese. Carefully slide omelet onto serving plate. Sprinkle with parsley, if desired.

MUSHROOM AND CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a small bowl, and use a fork to beat them with the salt and pepper.
• Heat an 8-inch omelet pan or shallow skillet (preferably nonstick) over medium-high heat. Add the butter, let it melt and swirl the pan so it coats the bottom evenly. Pour the eggs into the pan and quickly shake and swirl so the eggs completely cover the bottom. Let the eggs firm up on the bottom, about 30 seconds, then use a rubber spatula to lift the edges of the omelet up so any uncooked egg on the top runs underneath.
• Sprinkle half of the eggs with the sauteed mushrooms and cheese and let it cook for another 30 seconds; the top should be moist but not quite runny (unless you like it runny). Flip the uncooked side of the eggs over the filling, and slide it onto a plate. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
• Heat a very large skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil, then the mushrooms and garlic, season with salt and pepper and saute until the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms have turned nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Taste, adjust seasonings and serve hot.

THREE EGG OMELET

Steps:

• Spray or lightly grease a large skillet and heat over medium heat.
• Crack 3 eggs into a glass measuring cup and beat with a fork or whisk until scrambled. Pour eggs into heated skillet, swirling the pan to coat the bottom. Cover and let cook until eggs are firm, about 2 minutes.
• Top with 1/4 each of the chopped ham, turkey, green onions, tomato, parsley, green bell pepper, and Cheddar cheese. Fold egg in half over fillings, and serve warm. Repeat with remaining ingredients for 4 omelets.

SIMPLE CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then beat well with a fork until fully combined.
• Place a small non-stick frying pan on a low heat to warm up.
• Grate the cheese onto a board and set aside.
• Add ½ tablespoon of oil to the hot pan, then carefully pour in the eggs.
• Tilt the pan to spread them out evenly, using a fork to swirl the eggs around the pan a little.
• When the omelette begins to cook and firm up, but still has a little raw egg on top, sprinkle over the cheese.
• Using a spatula, ease around the edges of the omelette, then fold it over in half.
• When it starts to turn golden brown underneath, remove the pan from the heat and slide the omelette onto a plate. Delicious with a tomato salad and wholemeal bread.

CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl with a whisk. Add milk and season with salt and white pepper. Whisk for a few minutes until egg mixture is foamy; beating in air makes the omelette fluffy.
• Melt butter in a small, nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in egg mixture and twirl skillet so bottom is evenly covered with egg. Cook for 1 minute until egg starts to set. Lift edges with a spatula and tilt the skillet so uncooked egg mixture can run towards the bottom of the skillet to set. Repeat until no visible liquid egg remains.
• Carefully flip omelette and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Sprinkle Emmentaler cheese in one line in the middle of the omelette and fold omelette in half. Cook for 20 seconds, then slide omelette onto plate.

CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Whisk the egg and milk in a bowl with a fork until thoroughly combined.
• Melt butter in a 6 or 8-inch omelette pan over medium heat (approximately 30 seconds) making sure it coats the bottom of the pan. As soon as the butter stops bubbling (and before it starts to brown) slowly pour in the egg mixture.
• Pour in the egg mixture tilting the pan to spread it evenly. Let the egg firm up a little, and after about ten-seconds shake the pan a bit and use a spatula to gently direct the mixture away from the sides and into the middle. Allow the remaining liquid to then flow into the space left at the sides of the pan.
• Continue to cook for another minute or so until the egg mixture holds together. Do not let the underside of the eggs brown.
• Sprinkle the top with the shredded cheese and with a spatula; gently fold the omelette in a half moon shape.
• Continue to cook another 30 seconds or until the omelette is thoroughly cooked through.
• Cool, cut into bite size pieces and serve.
