The method

Step by step

1
Crack the eggs into a small bowl, add the salt and black pepper, and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy.
About 1 min
2
Heat the olive oil in an 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Using a non-stick pan is crucial for an easy-to-flip omelette.
3
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until it wilts.
About 2 min
4
Pour the whisked eggs over the wilted spinach in the skillet. Gently swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly.
5
Cook the omelette for 2-3 minutes, without stirring, until the edges begin to set and the top is mostly cooked but still slightly wet.
About 3 min
Cook’s note: Keep the heat medium-low to prevent the bottom from burning before the top cooks.
6
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over one half of the omelette.
7
Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the feta cheese using a spatula.
8
Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the cheese is slightly warmed and the omelette is cooked to your desired doneness.
About 1 min
9
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
