2 tablespoons milk or cream (optional for fluffiness)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
½ cup bell peppers, diced (mix of red, yellow, and green)
¼ cup onion, diced
¼ cup shredded cheese (optional: cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)
2 tablespoons fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or basil), chopped
Instructions
Step 1: Sauté Vegetables : Heat butter or olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add diced bell peppers and onions. Cook for 3–4 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Eggs : In a medium bowl, whisk eggs with milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth and frothy.
Step 3: Cook the Omelette : Heat the same skillet over medium-low heat and melt a little more butter if needed. Pour in the egg mixture and let it set for 1–2 minutes without stirring. Gently lift edges with a spatula and tilt the pan to let uncooked eggs flow underneath.
Step 4: Add Filling : Spread the sautéed bell peppers and onions evenly over one half of the omelette. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top if using.
Step 5: Fold and Finish : Fold the omelette in half over the filling. Cook for 1–2 more minutes until cheese melts and eggs are fully set. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve hot.
