Serves 2

Ingredients

Eggs
4 large
Butter
1 tablespoon
Salt
to taste
Black pepper
to taste
Chives
2 tablespoons, chopped
Cream cheese
2 ounces, softened
Smoked salmon
4 ounces, sliced

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  2. Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbling.
  3. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, swirling to ensure even coverage. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set and the bottom is lightly golden.
  4. Carefully place the smoked salmon slices on one half of the omelette, ensuring an even distribution.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of softened cream cheese on top of the smoked salmon, allowing it to melt slightly into the warm eggs.
  6. Sprinkle the chopped chives over the cream cheese for a burst of freshness.
  7. Gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filling, pressing down slightly to seal.
  8. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the omelette is cooked through and the cheese is melty and creamy.
  9. Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with extra chives if desired, and serve hot.
