Cheese Omelette
The classic! Easy, fast and super simple. My go-to meal when I don't feel like cooking.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp dried garlic powder (optional)
- 1/2 tsp piri piri hot sauce (optional)
- 50 g grated cheese of your choice, for example, Mozzarella
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Pour the oil into a frying pan and turn the heat to medium to high heat.
- Add garlic powder, piri piri and salt to the egg. Beat it beating until everything is well-combined.
- Once the oil has heated up, pour the egg into the pan. If you want a crispy well-done egg, wait until the oil is hot.
- Sprinkle the grated cheese on top of the egg before it has set completely. Add as much pepper as you like.
- Once the egg has set enough flip it. Turn the heat off immediately. The pan and your stove are hot enough to fry this side and you avoid burning your cheese.
Notes
So I like my omelettes very well done and my cheese crispy. You too? Then follow the instructions. If you prefer a softer omelette fry it slowly on medium heat. Don't turn the heat off after you've flipped it though or your omelette won't be done.
If you prefer your cheese to really melt into the omelette add it to the beaten egg before you pour everything into the pan.
