Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs

  • 6 sliced mushrooms

  • 100g grated cheddar

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Fresh chopped herbs (optional, for garnish)

 

Method

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk until well combined.

  2. Slice the mushrooms and grate the cheddar.

  3. In a non-stick pan, melt half of the butter over medium heat add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender and lightly browned. Remove them from the pan.

  4. In the same pan, add the remaining butter and let it melt, swirling to coat the pan evenly. Pour the beaten eggs in. Let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.

  5. Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms and cheese evenly over one-half of the omelette

  6. Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the mushrooms and cheese. Let the omelette cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.

  7.  Slide onto a plate and garnish with herbs and cheese!

Chef’s tips

Try adding other veggies like broccoli, peas or spring onion!

Serve with a side of toast, hash browns, or a fresh green salad for a complete meal. A dollop of sour cream or salsa can also complement the flavours nicely.
