Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best taste and texture.
- Make sure the avocado is ripe but firm to avoid a mushy texture in the omelet.
- Chop the smoked salmon and basil finely to ensure even distribution in the omelet.
- Whisk the eggs and milk thoroughly to incorporate air, which will make the omelet fluffier.
- Cook the omelet on low to medium heat to avoid burning and ensure it cooks evenly.
