Ingredients

Directions

1. Place fry pan over low/medium heat. In a bowl, whisk eggs, salt and pepper.
2. Add butter to pan, then when it foams, add egg. Immediately give it a few stirs (as though you’re making scrambled eggs) then when the base just starts to set, tip pan to spread it all out to cover the base.
3. Wait 20 - 30 seconds, then use a rubber spatula to lift up the edge, tilt pan to make the egg run off the surface under the omelette. Repeat 2 or 3 times around the edges of the omelette.
4. Cover with lid and cook for 30 seconds or until the underside is light golden and top is just set.
5. Fold omelette in half, transfer to serving plate immediately.
