Ingredients

for 1 serving

  • 3 eggs
  • salt, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter, unsalted
  • fresh chive, to serve

Preparation

  1. Beat the eggs with the salt until the whites and the yolks are completely combined, with no spots of egg white remaining.
  2. Over medium-low heat, melt the butter in a skillet, then pour in the eggs.
  3. Using a rubber spatula, constantly scrape the bottom of the pan while shaking the pan in a circular motion to ensure that the eggs cook slowly, forming only small curds, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Once you start to see the bottom of the pan for more than a second after scraping, push the eggs into a round circular shape. Cook until the edges solidify, then tilt the pan and carefully roll the omelette on itself.
  5. Invert onto a plate, then sprinkle with chives.
  6. Serve immediately.
  7. Enjoy!
