Servings: 2
Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Black pepper
- to taste
- Salt
- to taste
- Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup, shredded
- Tomatoes
- 1 cup, diced
- Fresh spinach
- 2 cups, chopped
- Eggs
- 4, large
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and beat them with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, ensuring the oil coats the entire surface.
- Add the chopped spinach and diced tomatoes to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften, releasing their juices.
- Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the sautéed spinach and tomatoes, tilting the skillet to distribute the eggs if necessary.
- Allow the omelette to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set and the center is slightly runny.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half, covering the cheese. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through but still tender.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot, garnished with additional black pepper or fresh herbs if desired.
