Omelet or Frittata Recipe

French · Main course · 15 min total

A versatile egg dish that can be served for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner. This recipe works for both a classic folded omelet and a hearty baked frittata.

Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk or water
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1/4 cup shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar, mozzarella)
• 1/4 cup diced ham or cooked vegetables (optional)

Instructions

1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until frothy.
2. Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbling.
3. For omelet: Pour egg mixture into skillet. Let cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until edges are set. Sprinkle cheese and fillings over half. Fold the other half over and slide onto plate.
4. For frittata: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Pour egg mixture into oven-safe skillet. Sprinkle cheese and fillings evenly. Cook on stovetop for 2 minutes, then transfer to oven and bake 8-10 minutes until puffed and golden. Cut into wedges.

Tips

• Use room temperature eggs for fluffier texture.
• For a healthier version, use egg whites or reduce cheese.
• Leftover frittata can be refrigerated and reheated.
