Ingredients
- Butter (2 tablespoons)
- Mushrooms (1 cup, sliced)
- Eggs (3 large)
- Cheddar cheese (1/2 cup, shredded)
- Fresh parsley (1 tablespoon, chopped (for garnish))
- Salt (to taste)
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat until melted.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté them until they are golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Once cooked, remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter and heat over medium heat until melted.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, allowing them to cook undisturbed for about 1-2 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.
- Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling and cook for another minute, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Mushroom and Cheddar Omelette!
