Ingredients
4 large eggs
2 tbsp milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
2 frankfurters, sliced into rounds
1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
2 tbsp butter
1/2 cup shredded Gouda or Emmental cheese
Instructions
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until frothy.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tbsp butter. Add onion and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add frankfurter slices and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
In the same skillet, melt remaining 1 tbsp butter over medium-low heat. Pour in half the egg mixture, tilting to cover the pan. Cook until edges are set but center is still slightly runny, about 2 minutes.
Sprinkle half the cheese over one half of the omelette, then top with half the frankfurter-onion mixture. Fold the other half over the filling. Cook 30 seconds, then slide onto a plate. Repeat with remaining ingredients for second omelette.
Serve immediately.
Tips
For extra flavor, add a pinch of paprika or fresh chives to the egg mixture.
Serve with a side of crusty bread or a simple green salad.
If you prefer a fully set omelette, cook longer over low heat.
