An omelette is the rescue for every rushed morning: eggs, a pan, and a few minutes. But what sets an ordinary omelette apart from one that melts in your mouth comes down to gentle heat and a soft hand. A filling of cheese and vegetables turns it into a complete, satisfying meal.

The secret? Beat the eggs well and cook over low heat so they set without drying out, then fold the omelette before it’s fully cooked so it finishes in its own residual heat. Don’t leave it on too long and it stays beautifully soft.

ملاحظات

Low heat gives you a soft omelette that's never dry.
Fold it before it's fully cooked and let the residual heat finish the job.
Mix up the filling with mushrooms, spinach or turkey.
