Slide onto a plate and sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon chives.

• Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then beat well with a fork until fully combined.
• Place a small non-stick frying pan on a low heat to warm up.
• Grate the cheese onto a board and set aside.
• Add ½ tablespoon of oil to the hot pan, then carefully pour in the eggs.
• Tilt the pan to spread them out evenly, using a fork to swirl the eggs around the pan a little.
• When the omelette begins to cook and firm up, but still has a little raw egg on top, sprinkle over the cheese.
• Using a spatula, ease around the edges of the omelette, then fold it over in half.
• When it starts to turn golden brown underneath, remove the pan from the heat and slide the omelette onto a plate. Delicious with a tomato salad and wholemeal bread.

Steps:

• Combine eggs and milk in bowl; beat with fork or whisk until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
• Melt butter in 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling; pour egg mixture into hot skillet. Cook 30 seconds or until bottom is set. Run heat proof spatula around edge of pan, lifting edges of eggs and allowing uncooked portions to flow underneath. Tilt pan, if necessary. Continue cooking, lifting eggs as needed, 1-2 minutes or until almost set.
• Remove from heat. Sprinkle cheese over half of omelet. Carefully fold other side of omelet over cheese. Carefully slide omelet onto serving plate. Sprinkle with parsley, if desired.

CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl with a whisk. Add milk and season with salt and white pepper. Whisk for a few minutes until egg mixture is foamy; beating in air makes the omelette fluffy.
• Melt butter in a small, nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in egg mixture and twirl skillet so bottom is evenly covered with egg. Cook for 1 minute until egg starts to set. Lift edges with a spatula and tilt the skillet so uncooked egg mixture can run towards the bottom of the skillet to set. Repeat until no visible liquid egg remains.
• Carefully flip omelette and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Sprinkle Emmentaler cheese in one line in the middle of the omelette and fold omelette in half. Cook for 20 seconds, then slide omelette onto plate.

CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Whisk the egg and milk in a bowl with a fork until thoroughly combined.
• Melt butter in a 6 or 8-inch omelette pan over medium heat (approximately 30 seconds) making sure it coats the bottom of the pan. As soon as the butter stops bubbling (and before it starts to brown) slowly pour in the egg mixture.
• Pour in the egg mixture tilting the pan to spread it evenly. Let the egg firm up a little, and after about ten-seconds shake the pan a bit and use a spatula to gently direct the mixture away from the sides and into the middle. Allow the remaining liquid to then flow into the space left at the sides of the pan.
• Continue to cook for another minute or so until the egg mixture holds together. Do not let the underside of the eggs brown.
• Sprinkle the top with the shredded cheese and with a spatula; gently fold the omelette in a half moon shape.
• Continue to cook another 30 seconds or until the omelette is thoroughly cooked through.
• Cool, cut into bite size pieces and serve.

POP'S DOUBLE-STUFFED, DOUBLE-FLUFFED AMERICAN OMELET

Steps:

• In a 10- or 12-inch skillet, cook the sausage and bacon fully over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until tender. Reserve the mixture in a bowl.
• In a blender, whip the eggs and half-and-half until very light, about 90 seconds on high. (A milkshake blender, while not entirely necessary, does offer a little bit more fluff and a bit more fun.)
• Give the skillet a wipe and warm it over medium heat. Swirl the butter in the hot pan to coat it completely. Pour the whipped eggs into the pan and cook until fully set around the outer edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the heat to low and top the whole surface of the omelet with the spinach and cheddar. Cook until the spinach is slightly wilted and the cheese begins to melt.
• Add the sausage mixture to one side of the eggs and use 2 spatulas to fold the other half over the side with the sausage mixture. Cook until the eggs are set and the cheese is fully melted, another 2 minutes. The outer surface will be lightly browned in places and likely have some spots where cheese has broken the surface and possibly caramelized on the edges. This is considered a good thing, not unlike "burnt ends" in the BBQ world.

EASY OMELETTE RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE A BASIC TWO EGG OMELETTE

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, season with salt and pepper and beat the mixture with a fork or whisk.
• Heat a medium sized pan over a medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt. Swirl the butter around the base of the pan to coat evenly.
• Add the egg mixture to the pan and as it begins to cook, use a spatula to push cooked parts from the edge to the centre of the pan. As you do this, tilt and rotate the pan to allow the uncooked egg mixture to flow into empty spaces.
• When the eggs are almost set on the surface but still look moist, slide the spatula under one side of the omelette and fold over in half to create a semi-circle. If you want to add extra fillings like cheese, ham or mushroom, do so before folding the omelette in half and only sprinkle them over one side of the omelette. Then flip the unfilled side over onto the filled half.
• Let the folded omelette cook for a further minute (less if you like the centre soft and a little runny, or more if you like it cooked through), then slide it out of the pan and onto a plate. Serve and eat immediately.

DOUBLE CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Beat the eggs in a bowl with the Cheddar and Parmesan, half the chives, and some salt and freshly ground pepper. Beat the cream cheese with the remaining chives.
• Heat a heavy-based frying pan over a fairly high heat and add the butter. Let it melt and heat through thoroughly. Give the egg mixture one last stir and pour into the pan.
• Swirl around to coat the base evenly then allow the omelette's edges to set. Loosen the edges with a fish slice or palette knife and lift the edges up here and there, letting the runny egg flow down.
• Repeat this process until the omelette is cooked, with just a film of moist egg remaining on the surface.
• Remove the omelette in its frying pan from direct heat. Spoon the cream cheese down the centre and fold the omelette over the cream cheese filling.
• Transfer the omelette to a warm serving plate, slice in half and serve at once.

2 EGG CHEESE OMELETTE

Steps:

• Beat the eggs and put the pan on medium heat. Tip in a little butter, and let the brown a bit.
• Put the beaten eggs into the heated pan.
• Let it sit for 20-30 secs, then start moving the egg inward with a spatula, covering the "open spots" in the pan with the liquid egg.
• Do this continuously until it begins to set.
• Angle the pan around to move the still runny part of the omelette move to the edge.
• Salt and pepper to taste, and add the grated cheese on one half.
• Fold the other half over the cheese with a spatula, slide it halfway onto the plate, and fold it over again.
• Slide onto plate, garnish with a leaf of parsley, and serve immediately.
