Ingredients:

4 eggs
200g
1/2 tsp black pepper
1.05g
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1.55g
2 dash salt
0.80g
1/2 tbsp olive oil
7g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Crack the 4 large eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Add the 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 2 dashes of salt to the eggs.
2. Beat the Eggs:
- Using a whisk or a fork, beat the eggs together with the seasonings until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
3. Heat the Olive Oil:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Once the skillet is hot, add the 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Ensure the oil is evenly distributed across the surface by swirling the pan gently.
4. Cook the Omelet:
- Pour the beaten egg mixture into the skillet, letting it spread evenly across the pan.
- Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until they start to set around the edges.
- Gently lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula, tilting the pan to let the uncooked eggs flow underneath. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until the eggs are mostly set.
5. Fold and Serve:
- Once the omelet is mostly cooked with just a slight wetness on top, use the spatula to carefully fold the omelet in half.
- Continue to cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, ensuring the omelet is fully cooked but still tender inside.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
6. Garnish and Enjoy: (Optional)
- You can garnish with some fresh herbs like parsley or chives if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Garlic-Pepper Omelet with Olive Oil!

Tips:

- For added flavor and texture, consider incorporating ingredients like chopped onions, bell peppers, or spinach into the egg mixture.

- Make sure to use a non-stick skillet to prevent the omelet from sticking and to make flipping or folding easier.

- Cook the omelet over medium heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.

- For a fluffier omelet, add a splash of milk or water to the egg mixture before cooking.

This Garlic-Pepper Omelet with Olive Oil is a quick and easy recipe that is sure to become a favorite. The aromatic garlic and spicy black pepper make for a delightful combination that pairs wonderfully with the richness of the eggs and the smoothness of olive oil. Enjoy it on its own, or complement it with a side of fresh vegetables or toast for a complete meal.
