Cheese Omelette

This classic cheese omelettete is a staple vegetarian dish that relies on simple, high-quality ingredients for a satisfying result. By using organic eggs and a splash of whole milk, you create a light, fluffy texture that pairs beautifully with the sharp, savoury notes of melted cheddar. It is a versatile technique to master, providing a quick and nutritious meal that works just as well for a quiet weekday breakfast as it does for a light lunch.

Designed with simplicity in mind, this dish is an excellent source of protein and can be easily adapted with different herbs or cheeses to suit your palate. For younger family members, serving the omelettete in bite-sized pieces makes it an easy-to-manage finger food. Serve it alongside some grilled tomatoes or a crisp green salad for a balanced, homemade meal that is ready in less than five minutes.

Ingredients for Cheese Omelette

  • 1 organic large egg

  • 1 teaspoon whole milk or water

  • 1 tablespoon cheddar cheese, shredded (you can use other types of cheese)

  • 1 teaspoon butter or oil

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.
