De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1. 1

   Whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined and slightly frothy.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Ensure the eggs are thoroughly mixed for a consistent texture.

2. 2

   Melt half of the butter in a 20cm non-stick skillet over medium heat.

   Ongeveer 1 min

3. 3

   Add the button mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they are softened and lightly browned.

   Ongeveer 4 min

   Tip van de kok: Avoid overcrowding the pan to allow the mushrooms to brown instead of steam.

4. 4

   Remove the sautéed mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.

5. 5

   Add the remaining butter to the same skillet and let it melt.

6. 6

   Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet, tilting the pan to evenly coat the bottom.

   Ongeveer 1 min

   Tip van de kok: Keep the heat at medium-low to prevent the omelette from browning too quickly.

7. 7

   As the edges set, gently push the cooked egg toward the center with a spatula, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Do this a few times until most of the egg is set but the top is still slightly moist.

8. 8

   Distribute the sautéed mushrooms and shredded Swiss cheese over one half of the omelette.

   Ongeveer 1 min
