Ingredients:

3 eggs
150g
1 tsp black pepper
2.10g
3 oz gouda cheese
81g
1 stalk onion
12g
2 tbsp butter
27g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Crack the 3 eggs into a bowl and beat them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Add the 1 teaspoon of black pepper to the beaten eggs, mixing well.
- Grate or finely chop the 3 ounces of Gouda cheese.
- Chop the green onion into thin slices.
2. Heat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or omelet pan over medium heat.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan and let it melt, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
3. Cook the Eggs:
- Pour the beaten eggs into the hot skillet, tilting the pan slightly to ensure the eggs spread out evenly.
- Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until they begin to set at the edges.
4. Add Fillings:
- Sprinkle the Gouda cheese and green onion evenly over one half of the omelet.
- Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese begins to melt and the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
5. Fold the Omelet:
- Use a spatula to carefully fold the omelet in half, covering the cheese and onion side.
- Press down gently to ensure the omelet seals and the ingredients inside are warmed through.
6. Serve:
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Garnish with additional green onions or a sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve hot with your favorite sides like toast, hash browns, or a fresh salad.

Tips:

- Use fresh eggs for the best texture and flavor.

- Grate the Gouda cheese finely so it melts evenly throughout the omelet.

- Chop the green onion finely to ensure it spreads evenly and adds a gentle crunch to every bite.
