A Great Savory Breakfast
Omelets are Easy!
The Perfect Omelette Checklist
- Prepare all your omelette fixings before you start cooking. Chop your veggies, cook your meat, prepare any spices, etc.
- Eggs:Milk ratio is 2 eggs:1 tablespoon milk. I usually stick to two eggs per person.
- Season your egg mixture before you place it in the pan.
- Making sure your egg mixture won’t stick to your pan is crucial. Heat a fry pan over medium/high heat, add your olive oil or nonstick cookie spray.
- Patience is key. When your egg mixture is cooking, take a spatula and slowly lift the omelettes edge to encourage the egg mixture not to stick.
- I like to cook my egg mixture almost completely before I add my veggies to avoid uncooked egg.
- Only add your omelette fixings to half of your omelette to make halving your omelette easier.
- Slowly flip half of your omelette using a spatula and your hands.
