How to cook an Omelette (fried egg)

 Simple plain omelet by Chef Amirah




Here I would like to explain on how to make a 40-second omelet. Firstly, the ingredients need are 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons of water and 1 tablespoons of butter or an oil. This recipe serves one person. First step to cook an omelet is you need to beat  the eggs and water together until blended. Then you need to use a 10-inch omelet pan and heat the butter until it is hot enough to sizzle a drop of water. After that only you can pour your egg mixture.

 Next, the mixtures should be put immediately in the edges. By using an inverted pancake turner, carefully you push the cooked portions at the edged towards the center so that the uncooked portions can reach the hot pan surface and you tilt it. You should continue tilting it until the egg is set and not flow anymore.

 The next step is you should fill the omelet with half cup of desired mixture. Then use the pancake turner to fold the omelet in half. Lastly, you can invert it onto plate and it can be served immediately.
