This easy omelette recipe is a quick, customizable, and protein-rich meal perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With just a few ingredients and simple steps, you can make a soft, fluffy omelette that’s never dry or rubbery.

Ingredients

  • 23 large eggs
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon butter or oil
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
  • Fillings of choice (e.g., mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, spinach, tomatoes, fresh herbs)

Instructions

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt and pepper, and beat with a fork or whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add butter or oil to coat the surface.
  3. Pour in the eggs and tilt the pan to spread them evenly.
  4. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the cooked edges toward the center while tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  5. Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly soft on top, sprinkle cheese and desired fillings over one half of the omelette.
  6. Fold the other half over the fillings and cook for another 20–30 seconds until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through but still tender.
  7. Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.

Notes

For a fluffier omelette, beat the eggs well to incorporate air.Cook over medium-low heat to prevent browning and ensure a tender texture.Pre-cook firmer vegetables like bell peppers or onions for best texture.Customize with your favorite cheeses and fillings.
