kcalIngredients (Serves 1-2)
3 large eggs
2 tbsp heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp butter
1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
Optional fillings: sautéed spinach, diced bell peppers, cooked bacon, or mushrooms.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prep Your Egg Mixture
Separate the egg whites from the yolks into two bowls.
Whisk the yolks with the heavy cream, a pinch of salt, and pepper until smooth.
Using a hand mixer (or serious whisking skills 💪), beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. This is the secret to ultimate fluffiness! - ombine with Care
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture. Use a spatula and take your time to maintain the airiness. - Cook to Perfection
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Pour the fluffy egg mixture into the pan and spread evenly.
Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let it cook for 5-6 minutes until the omelet is set but still jiggly on top. - Add Cheese & Fillings
Sprinkle cheese and any optional fillings over one side of the omelet.
Carefully fold it in half using a spatula. Cover again for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and heat the fillings. - Serve and Enjoy
Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with fresh herbs (like chives or parsley), and serve immediately.

Tips for Success
Room Temperature Eggs: Easier to whip and incorporate air.
Don’t Rush the Whites: Properly beaten egg whites are the foundation of the fluffiness.
Low and Slow: Cooking on low heat ensures the omelet doesn’t deflate.
Use a Lid: It traps steam, helping the top cook without flipping.
