Foster's Omelettes

This classic omelettete is the ultimate quick vegetarian meal, offering a light and fluffy texture that works perfectly for breakfast, brunch, or a simple supper. By using quality large eggs and a touch of unsalted butter, you can create a protein-rich dish that is both satisfying and versatile. The secret lies in the gentle folding technique, which ensures the centre remains tender while the exterior stays pale and golden.

Whether you prefer your omelettete plain or packed with seasonal ingredients like sautéed mushrooms, wilted spinach, or grated cheddar, this foolproof method provides a reliable foundation. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a healthy, gluten-free option that can be prepared in under ten minutes. Serve alongside a crisp green salad or a slice of buttered sourdough toast for a complete, nourishing meal.

Ingredients for Foster's Omelettes

  • 3 large eggs

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelette pan over medium heat.

Beat the eggs with the salt and pepper in a small bowl with a whisk or fork.

Place the butter in the pan and swirl it around in the pan to distribute evenly. When the butter has melted and the foam subsides, pour the eggs into the pan.

Let the eggs sit for a few seconds to begin cooking, then push the outer edges of the eggs toward the centre of the pan with a spatula. As they cook, continue pushing the edges toward the centre, allowing uncooked egg to flow to the outer edges of the pan.

When the eggs are still moist but no longer runny, place the desired filling on one side of the omelette.

Fold the omelette over the filling with a spatula. Slide the omelette onto a warm plate and serve immediately or keep warm while you make the remaining omelettes. Garnish as desired.
