Directions

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk them lightly, then add the salt and pepper. ≈ 4 min
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat, then melt the butter with a small amount of oil paint. Watch carefully to prevent the butter from burning, and spread it evenly over the bottom of the skillet.
  3. Once the pan is hot, pour in the beaten eggs, tilting the pan to spread them evenly. As soon as they start to set, use a spatula to bring the edges towards the center, then tilt the pan again to distribute the egg mixture.
  4. While the surface is still slightly wet, fold or roll the omelette, lifting one edge to give it its shape. ≈ 10 min
  5. Place the omelette on a plate. The center should remain soft and slightly runny. ≈ 3 min
