Instructions

Beat the eggs:
In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until they are well mixed. You can add a tablespoon of water or milk for a fluffier texture. -
Heat the pan:
Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add butter or oil. -
Cook the omelette:
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour in the eggs. Tilt the pan to ensure the eggs evenly coat the surface. -
Add fillings (optional):
When the eggs begin to set at the edges but are still slightly runny in the middle, sprinkle your chosen fillings over one half of the omelette. -
Fold and serve:
As the omelette continues to cook, carefully lift one edge and fold it over the fillings. Let it cook for another minute, then slide it onto a plate. -
Enjoy:
Serve hot, with additional salt and pepper if needed.
