Equipment

  • 1 Skillet

Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 eggs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • Do not overbeat the eggs; simply blend the yolks and whites after whisking in the salt, pepper, and water.
  • A nonstick pan should be heated on high. Move the pan around to coat with the butter after adding it; it should start to sizzle right away. Add the eggs once the butter has completely melted and any boiling or foaming has died down.
  • The eggs should immediately start to bubble. After letting them sit for about 5 seconds, stir the pan in a circular motion while maintaining contact with the heat. Continue swirling for approximately 3 seconds, or until the eggs start to coagulate into a flat circle that lifts off the pan.
  • When the omelet folds over on itself and reduces to approximately a third of its initial diameter, jerk the pan a couple times in your direction.
  • Holding the handle with your dominant hand with your palm up and your thumb facing out, rotate the pan 90 degrees. To fold the omelet onto a plate with the smooth bottom side facing up, flip the pan over (with the edge of the pan contacting the plate). If desired, add more butter and add parsley as a garnish. Serve right away.
