Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them until they are well combined.
- Finely chop the chives and set aside.
- Crumble the feta cheese and measure out the grated parmesan cheese.
- Season the beaten eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
2. Heat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the butter to the skillet. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
3. Cook the Omelette:
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs spread out evenly.
- Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until they start to set around the edges.
4. Add the Fillings:
- Sprinkle the chopped chives evenly over the surface of the omelette.
- Distribute the crumbled feta cheese and grated parmesan cheese over one half of the omelette.
5. Fold and Finish Cooking:
- Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, carefully fold the omelette in half over the fillings.
- Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the eggs to cook through completely.
6. Serve:
- Slide the omelette onto a plate.
- Garnish with extra chives if desired.
- Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use fresh chives for the best flavor.
- Ensure the pan is hot before adding the egg mixture to get a nice, fluffy omelette.
- Cook the omelette over medium heat to avoid burning and to ensure even cooking.
- Feel free to add some extra ingredients such as mushrooms or spinach to give your omelette added texture and nutrition.
- Serve the omelette immediately for the best taste and texture.
