Instructions
- Crack 2 large eggs into a medium bowl and whisk until yolks and whites are well combined. Season the eggs with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until warm. Add butter or extra-virgin olive oil to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and immediately reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Cook without stirring until the edges just begin to set, about 10 seconds.
- Working around the edges with a spatula, gently push the cooked egg toward the center so uncooked egg flows to the outside; tilt the pan as needed. Repeat until the uncooked egg thickens and the omelette forms an even layer.
- When the omelette is mostly set but still slightly soft on top, add your desired fillings on one half.
- Fold the other half of the omelette over the fillings and cook until the eggs are just set.
- Remove the omelette from the heat, adjust seasoning with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper if desired, and serve.
