Chef's Tips

—You can sprinkle grated cheese over the omelette as soon as you remove it from the pan. The heat of the omelette, lightly melts the cheese.
—You can add other vegetables or mushroom or shredded chicken.
—Whisk the egg mixture well, just before pouring it over the hot pan and do not cook on high flame.
—Pour the egg mixture only after the pan has heated well. It means, if you add a drop of water, it should sizzle.
