Ingredients

  • 2 pcs Eggs (large)
  • 80 g Gruyère (grated)
  • 15 g Butter (for cooking, plus a small piece for the pan rim)
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Pepper

Instructions

  1. Grate the cheese

    Grate the 80 g of Gruyère so that it melts quickly in the pan.

    Time: PT2M

  2. Melt the butter

    Place the butter in the pan and melt it over medium heat, watching so it doesn't brown.

    Time: PT2M

  3. Break and mix the eggs

    Crack the eggs into the bowl and lightly stir with a fork only to break the yolks and distribute them into the whites.

    Time: PT1M

  4. Cooking the omelette

    Pour the beaten eggs into the hot pan, reduce the heat slightly and let set. Gently fold the edges toward the center to form a round shape.

    Time: PT2M

  5. Add the cheese

    When the omelette starts to set but the top is still slightly liquid, sprinkle the grated Gruyère and season with salt and pepper.

    Time: PT30S

  6. Let the butter flow around

    Place a small extra piece of butter on top; it will melt and run down the sides, adding shine and softness.

    Time: PT1M

  7. Finish cooking

    Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked to your liking.

    Time: PT1M

  8. Fold and serve

    Gently fold the omelette in half with the spatula, transfer to a plate and serve immediately, optionally accompanied by a small green salad.

    Time: PT30S
