Instructions
1Prepare the Eggs
3m
Separate Eggs
Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place the yolks in a small bowl and the whites in a large mixing bowl.
Add Salt and Sugar
Add salt to the egg yolks and sugar to the egg whites.
Whisk Yolks
Whisk the egg yolks until smooth and slightly thickened.
Whip Egg Whites
Whip the egg whites with a whisk until stiff peaks form. This will take several minutes.
Combine Egg Mixtures
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the egg yolk mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this will deflate the whites.
2Cook the Omelette
10m
Heat Pan
Melt butter in a non-stick pan over low heat. Swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
Add Egg Mixture
Pour the egg mixture into the heated pan. Use a spatula to gently spread it into an even layer.
Cook Omelette
Cover the pan and cook on low heat for about 3 minutes, or until the bottom is set and lightly golden.
Fold Omelette
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half, then gently slide it onto a serving plate.
Flip and Finish
Flip the omelette to cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Tips
Ensure your egg whites are whipped to stiff peaks for maximum fluffiness.
Cook on low heat to prevent the omelette from burning and to allow it to cook through evenly.
Use a non-stick pan to prevent the omelette from sticking and to make folding easier.
