how do you make your omlette?

Cheese omelette

Give the eggs a good whisk
Heat butter in pan until sizzling hot.
Pour eggs in. As they cook fold over with spatula
Put grated cheese and some mixed dried herbs on the top.

I always finish off under a hot grill but thats because I like it flat.
Lot of people fold it as it slides onto the plate which helps remaining cheese melt

here's how your fellow Scot does them

For one, a mug is the ideal vessel for egg-beating with a fork.

my first attempt

added milk--ended up with scrabbled egg

DO NOT stir too much in pan, otherwise.............

Oh yes; and DON'T add milk..

I prefer a frittata btw.

Other half does a nice one with bacon, potato, tomato, cheese and peppers in - that gets finished under the grill.

nice

A poor man's poached egg.

Beat the eggs with a splash of cold water , add some coarse sea salt then pour the mixture into the machine.

xm - ultimately are you looking to do a mars bar omelette?

Have an Excellent non stick pan and as stated finish under the grill ...


Mix eggs in Jug add onions if required ,poor into pan ,place Mushrooms Tomatoes or what ever on top when omelette in pan

Pizza Omelette imo

SEPERATE YOUR EGGS !

Took me a while to master too but think Old Woman like Aunt Bessie with nimble fingers tipping them too & fro as if she's done it a million times before instead of just CRACKIN THEM OUT !

Beat the whites Real Good first then Plop the yolks in after with similar amount of milk & touch of salt n pepper

DO NOT BURN

Aunt Bessie

2-3 eggs
Sea Salt
Black pepper
Sliced mushrooms
Diced smoked bacon
Sprinkle of cheddar
Splash of milk or water
Knob of butter
Teaspoon of olive oil

Heat oil/butter in decent pan add bacon & mushrooms
Whisk egg salt/pepper milk not too much pour into pan once
Bacon and mushrooms have browned a bit.
Use a non stick pan, know need to move it about much.
Get it cooked on bottom, ease edges away from pan.
Sprinkle with good cheddar cheese and finish under a very hot grill.

Serve with some wholemeal toast and a nice mug of strong tea, HP sauce optional.

winner so far

Sounds delicious clarky lad, I prefer poached eggs personally but that is a very decent method for a perfect omlette.

I make one with smoked haddock,cheddar,double cream and chives.

Fry in a non stick pan and fold once, lovely.

Put eggs in plastic food bag, squish until mixed. Pop in microwave or boil.

Squeeze out of bag then bin the bag, no mess.

Do you bother to crack them babies first.. Ovalman

oval copied it from Apollo 11

No shells make it less crunchy but it's an easy way to cook an omelette. I did spot it on Facebook xmoneyx
