BASIC OMELETTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Season the beaten eggs well with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat until the butter has melted and is foaming.
• Pour the eggs into the pan, tilt the pan ever so slightly from one side to another to allow the eggs to swirl and cover the surface of the pan completely. Let the mixture cook for about 20 seconds then scrape a line through the middle with a spatula.
• Tilt the pan again to allow it to fill back up with the runny egg. Repeat once or twice more until the egg has just set.
• At this point you can fill the omelette with whatever you like - some grated cheese, sliced ham, fresh herbs, sautéed mushrooms or smoked salmon all work well. Scatter the filling over the top of the omelette and fold gently in half with the spatula. Slide onto a plate to serve.

TRADITIONAL IRISH OMELETTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Mash the potato and add the egg yolks together with the milk, chopped up chives, butter, lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they hold a stiff peaks.
• Gently fold the whisked egg whites into the potato mixture, making sure that you don't lose any air.
• Heat the pan on low heat, add extra butter or oil and pour the omelette mixture in.
• Cook for about 5 minutes and check when the bottom gets a nice brown colour.
• At that point either place it under low heat grill (if you have a suitable skillet or a baking tray) or very gently turn the omelette in the pan. If you use a long and wide utensil, you should be fine turning the omelette without knocking too much air out of it.
• Cook for another 5 minutes or until is very light brown on the top.
• Traditionally you'd slice the omelette into 4 pieces and serve it with buttered toast or even a salad if it's for a lunch.
