Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients

    Gather the eggs, spinach, mushrooms, cheese, butter, water, salt, and black pepper with a bowl, whisk, knife, board, spatula, and nonstick pan. · 5 min

    What to look for: All ingredients are measured and tools are within reach.

  2. Whisk Eggs

    Whisk the eggs with water, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is loose and evenly yellow, then fold in the grated cheese. · 2 min

    What to look for: Egg mixture looks smooth, fluid, and evenly speckled with pepper.

  3. Saute Mushrooms

    Melt 5 g butter in the pan over medium heat, add mushrooms, and cook until their moisture evaporates and the edges turn golden. · 5 min

    What to look for: Mushrooms shrink, brown at the edges, and the pan looks mostly dry.

  4. Wilt Spinach

    Add spinach to the mushrooms and cook just until wilted, glossy, and reduced, then scrape the vegetables onto a plate. · 2 min

    What to look for: Spinach is bright green, soft, and no longer bulky.

  5. Set Egg Base

    Melt the remaining butter in the pan, pour in the egg mixture, and tilt the pan until the base is covered in an even layer. · 2 min

    What to look for: Eggs spread evenly and the edges begin to turn opaque.

  6. Fill And Fold

    Cook until the edges set, scatter the warm vegetables over 1 side, and fold the omelette when the top is still slightly creamy. · 2 min

    What to look for: Omelette holds its shape while the surface remains moist and glossy.

  7. Serve Omelette

    Slide the omelette onto a warm plate, cut it into 2 portions, and serve at once while the cheese is soft and the eggs are tender. · 1 min

    What to look for: Omelette is folded, tender, and lightly filled with visible spinach and mushrooms.
