INGREDIENTS

PREPARATION

  • Whisk the eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  • Heat the butter: In a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to foam.
  • Cook the eggs: Pour the whisked eggs into the pan, tilting it slightly to spread the mixture evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for 30-40 seconds until the edges begin to set.
  • Add the cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one-half of the omelette.
  • Fold and finish: Once the eggs are mostly set but slightly soft in the centre, use a spatula to fold the omelette in half gently. Cook for another 20-30 seconds until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve immediately: Transfer to a plate and enjoy hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or avocado slices.

TIPS

Here are some tips for Keto-Friendly Cheesy Omelette:

  • Use room temperature eggs: They whisk better and result in a fluffier omelette.
  • Don’t overcook: Slightly undercooked eggs will continue to cook from residual heat after folding.
  • Use low heat: Cooking on medium-low prevents the eggs from browning too much and keeps them soft.
  • Try different cheeses: Swap cheddar for Swiss, mozzarella or gouda for a distinct flavour.
  • Add crunch: A sprinkle of toasted nuts or seeds can enhance texture and nutrition.

VARIATIONS

  • Make it spicy: Add a pinch of chilli flakes or diced jalapeños for extra heat.
  • Boost the protein: Stir in cooked chicken or crumbled sausage for an even heartier meal.
  • Vegetarian twist: Include sautéed mushrooms, onions or zucchini for added fibre and nutrients.
  • Dairy-free version: Use coconut oil instead of butter and replace cheese with nutritional yeast.
  • Herb-infused: Fresh parsley, basil or chives can elevate the omelette’s aroma and taste.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet over low heat.
  • Freezing: Not recommended, as eggs can become rubbery when frozen and reheated.
  • Make-ahead tip: Whisk eggs in advance and store them in the fridge for a quick breakfast.
