Servings: 2

Ingredients

Eggs
4 large
Olive oil
1 tablespoon
Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon
Sweet corn
1 cup, cooked (fresh or frozen)
Black beans
1 cup, canned (rinsed and drained)
Cheddar cheese
1 cup, shredded
Fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish)
Sour cream
1/4 cup (optional for serving)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with salt and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, ensuring the oil coats the bottom of the skillet.
  3. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet and let them cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, allowing the edges to set.
  4. As the omelette begins to firm up, sprinkle the cooked corn, black beans, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
  5. Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
  6. Once cooked, gently slide the omelette onto a plate.
  7. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired, and serve hot with a dollop of sour cream on the side.
