A great omelette melts in your mouth. Made with our buttery, organic eggs as the hero, this family favourite is easy to make but always feels so satisfying. A good mature cheddar and a handful of chives give it that little extra oomph. We like to go for a hearty half moon fold to keep things simple and lock in that molten middle.
Prep time 5 minutes | Cook time 3 minutes | Serves 1
2 Stonegate Estate Organic eggs
20g organic butter
A handful of grated mature cheddar cheese
A small handful of finely snipped chives
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Whisk the eggs together in a bowl and season them with salt and pepper.
Set a small to medium sized nonstick frying pan over a medium high heat. Add the butter to the pan and when it’s bubbling away, pour it into the bowl of whisked eggs and stir to combine.
Return the pan to the heat and when it’s really hot, pour in the buttery eggs. Move them around the pan tipping and tilting, disturbing the eggs with the end of a wooden spoon. After 30 to 40 seconds, scatter over the mature cheddar, followed by the snipped chives.
Ease a spatula under one side of omelette and fold gently over. Slide the omelette out onto a warm plate and eat straight away.
