Ingredients You’ll Need

3 large eggs
1/4 cup fresh spinach (chopped)
1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
1 tablespoon butter or oil
Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional: chili flakes or herbs

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare Your Ingredients

Start by washing the spinach thoroughly and chopping it into small pieces. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk well until the mixture becomes smooth and slightly frothy.

2. Heat the Pan Correctly

Place a non-stick pan on medium-low heat and add butter or oil. Let it melt completely and heat gently. Avoid high heat, as it can burn the omelette and make it dry.

3. Cook the Spinach First

Add the chopped spinach to the pan and sauté for about 1–2 minutes. Stir occasionally until it softens and reduces in size. This step removes excess moisture and improves flavor.

4. Pour the Egg Mixture

Lower the heat slightly and pour the whisked eggs evenly over the spinach. Tilt the pan gently so the eggs spread across the surface.

5. Let It Set Slowly

Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for a minute. As the edges begin to set, you can gently lift them with a spatula to let uncooked egg flow underneath.

6. Add Cheese at the Right Time

Once the top is slightly soft but not fully cooked, sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over one side of the omelette. This ensures it melts perfectly without burning.

7. Fold and Finish Cooking

Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula. Cook for another 1–2 minutes on low heat until the cheese melts completely and the inside is fully cooked.
