Tips:

- Use fresh eggs at room temperature. Fresh eggs will produce a better omelette with a richer flavour and texture.
- Don’t overcook the eggs. The yolks should be still runny when you remove the omelette from the skillet.
- Use a non-stick skillet. This will prevent the omelette from sticking to the pan and make it easier to flip.
- Cook the omelette over medium heat. This will help to ensure that the eggs cook evenly without burning.
- Be careful when removing the omelette from the skillet. Use a spatula to gently loosen the edges of the omelette.
