Equipment

  • Large Frying Pan
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Fork
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 knobs Butter
  • 3 Eggs best quality you can find
  • Sea Salt
  • Herbs optional

Instructions
 

  • Crack 3 eggs into a mixing bowl (removing any broken shell if necessary). Mix thoroughly with a fork until the egg yolk and white has fully incorporated.
  • Preheat a large frying pan over a medium heat. Melt the butter evenly over the pan (either using a spatula to spread it or by shaking the pan). Add the eggs and mix the mixture with a fork for 5-10 seconds whilst genetly shaking the pan. With a spatula gently spread any runny eggs over the more cooked parts. Leave to cook for 15-20 seconds, until the eggs have nearly set.
  • With your spatula gently roll the omelette (you may find it easier to tilt the pan in one hand whilst rolling the omelette with the spatula in the other hand). Leave to cook for 5-10 seconds.
  • Place the omelette onto a plate. Season with sea salt & add herbs.
