Omelette with mushrooms, bacon, and spring onions. This omelette has lots of flavour, partly due to the filling, but also because it is cooked at a high temperature. Which gives edges that turns a bit crispy and tasty, without making the omelette dry

Cook the omelette

While the filling is cooking, make the egg mixture. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt and beat until smooth. Heat the pan to 200 ºC and add the butter. Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Cook the omelette needs to cook for 1½ minutes before folding. But after the 1-minute mark, sprinkle the filling over the omelette. The filling needs to be added before the eggs are completely set. After 1½ minutes, fold the omelette in half. Then fry the omelette for ½ minute on each side. If necessary, add a little extra butter to the pan at the very end to ensure crispy edges.

Tips for this recipe

If you are using a 24 cm pan, you will need 2 eggs and 2 mushrooms for the omelette. If you use a 28 cm pan, use 3 eggs and 3 mushrooms. If you are making more than 1 omelette, it is best to either fry in oil or wash the pan between each omelette. Otherwise, subsequent omelettes will have a slightly burnt taste and appearance. This is due to the butter, from the prior omelettes, burning a little.
