Originating from France, omelettes have become a global dish with infinite variations, and this mushroom and onion version is a classic that never goes out of style.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
- Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup, shredded
- Butter
- 2 tablespoons
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, freshly ground
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Milk
- 2 tablespoons
- Eggs
- 3, large
- Onion
- 1 small, thinly sliced
- Mushrooms
- 1 cup, sliced
Instructions
- In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and onions to the skillet. Sauté them until they are tender and lightly browned, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Once done, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Using the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
- Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for a minute or until the edges start to set.
- With a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelette allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
- Evenly sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms, onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped parsley over one half of the omelette.
- Fold the other half of the omelette over the filling and let it cook for another minute or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
- Gently slide the omelette onto a plate and cut it into slices. Serve immediately while hot. Enjoy!
