Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Black pepper
- to taste
- Salt
- to taste
- Fresh basil
- 2 tablespoons, chopped
- Tomato
- 1 medium, diced
- Feta cheese
- 1/3 cup, crumbled
- Eggs
- 3 large
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten and frothy.
- Add the crumbled feta cheese, diced tomato, chopped fresh basil, salt, and black pepper to the beaten eggs. Mix until everything is evenly distributed.
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and allow it to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
- Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette and tilt the skillet to let the uncooked eggs flow to the edges.
- Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until the omelette is set but still slightly runny in the center.
- Carefully fold the omelette in half and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is fully cooked.
- Transfer the omelette to a plate, garnish with additional basil if desired, and serve hot.
Tips
- For extra flavor, consider adding sautéed onions or bell peppers to the mixture.
- You can substitute the feta with goat cheese for a different flavor profile.
- Pair with a slice of whole-grain toast or a light salad for a well-rounded meal.
