Golden-Brown Omelette

This classic golden-brown omelettete is a masterclass in simple, seasonal cooking. By allowing the butter to slightly nut and the eggs to develop a rich, burnished crust, you create a depth of flavour that far surpasses a standard pale omelettete. It is a versatile vegetarian dish that works beautifully for a quick weekday lunch or a sophisticated weekend brunch when paired with a crisp sourdough slice.

The beauty of this recipe lies in its adaptability. While it is delicious served plain with a hint of seasoning, you can easily customise the filling with savoury caramelised onions, sharp Parmesan, or a handful of fresh garden herbs like chives or parsley. High in protein and naturally gluten-free, it is a healthy, homemade staple for any confident home cook’s repertoire.

Ingredients for Golden-Brown Omelette

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 3 beaten eggs, beaten

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • Caramelized onions (optional)

  • Chopped herbs (optional)

  • Grated Parmesan (optional)

Heat a nonstick 8" or well-seasoned heavy steel skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add 2 tablespoons unsalted butter. Once butter sizzles and begins to brown, swirl to coat pan. Add 3 beaten eggs and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook, pulling up the edges with a heatproof silicone spatula, allowing uncooked eggs to run into pan, until the bottom is golden brown and the top begins to set, 1-2 minutes.

Add fillings, such as caramelized onions, chopped herbs, and grated Parmesan. Using the spatula, fold up 1/3 of the omelette. Roll the omelette over onto itself, then tilt the pan and slide omelette onto a plate.
