Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Omelette Base
  • 3 large eggs At room temperature for best texture
  • 2 tablespoons milk Optional, for extra fluffiness
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
Filling
  • ½ cup cooked ground beef Well-seasoned and fully cooked
  • ⅓ cup shredded cheese Cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend
  • 1 teaspoon butter or cooking oil For greasing the pan

Method
 

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add milk, salt, and black pepper, then whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter or oil, swirling to coat the pan evenly.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 1–2 minutes, until the edges begin to set.
  4. Gently push the cooked edges toward the center with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg to flow outward.
  5. Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly soft on top, sprinkle the cooked beef evenly over one half of the omelette.
  6. Add the shredded cheese over the beef and allow it to melt slightly.
  7. Carefully fold the omelette in half and cook for another 1–2 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and the eggs are tender.
  8. Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.

Notes

Cook the omelette over gentle heat to keep the eggs soft and creamy. You can add vegetables like onions or bell peppers if desired. Serve with toast or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
