Method
0 of 4 done- Break the eggs into a bowl and beat them until they are pale yellow. Avoid over-beating, as this can make the eggs break up in the pan. Add the oil to a small or medium non-stick frying pan and set it over a medium heat. Allow the pan to warm for up to 45 seconds. Pour in the beaten eggs. Wait about 10 seconds, then draw the cooked edges of the egg towards the centre. Repeat this until the egg forms a crepe-like layer, tilting the pan as needed so any runny egg fills the gaps and cooks.
- When the egg is mostly set, after roughly a minute and a half, scatter over the cheese. Season with salt and pepper if you like.
- Fold one side of the omelette over to create a half-moon shape. Cook for a little longer on each side.
- Serve immediately.
