Ingredients
  

  • 5 medium eggs fresh, preferably room temperature
  • 1 green onion chopped (adds mild flavor)
  • 2 tablespoon carrot chopped or grated (for color and texture)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt to taste
  • teaspoon black or white pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon neutral oil for cooking such as vegetable oil

Method
 

  1. Whisk the eggs together with salt and pepper until smooth and slightly frothy.
  2. Add the chopped carrots and green onions to the egg mixture and whisk again.
  3. Heat the oil in a 10-inch non-stick pan over low heat. Once the oil is warm, pour in ⅓ of the egg mixture, spreading it evenly across the pan.
  4. As the eggs start setting, gently lift the edges with a spatula or rice paddle. When the top is almost set, carefully roll the omelette from one side.
  5. Push the rolled omelette to one side of the pan and add another ⅓ of the egg mixture. Tilt the pan to allow the egg to fill in the spaces. Once the edges set, roll the omelette again.
  6. Repeat the same process for the last ⅓ of the egg mixture, rolling the omelette and ensuring it cooks evenly.
  7. Remove the omelette from the pan and let it rest on a cool surface for a few minutes. After resting, cut it into 6 to 8 slices.
  8. Serve the omelette immediately or cool it completely before storing in the fridge.
