Classic Omelette

Soft French-style omelette with your choice of filling. A 10-minute dinner that feels fancier than it is.

Medium ยท 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper
  • Filling: cheese, mushrooms, herbs, or ham

Steps

  1. Beat eggs until fully combined. Season.
  2. Heat butter in pan over medium-high until foaming.
  3. Add eggs. Immediately stir with fork while shaking pan.
  4. When eggs are just barely set but still wet, stop stirring.
  5. Add filling to one side. Fold omelette over filling.
  6. Slide onto plate and serve immediately.

Why this works

Medium heat and constant movement give you a soft, custardy omelette that rolls cleanly. It's technique, not ingredients.
