    How to Make Cheese Omelet

    1. Prepare the Egg Mixture

    Break open 8 eggs into a large bowl. Add in 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley, 2 tablespoons of mixed chopped herbs, and a pinch of black pepper and salt. Beat these together until well-combined.

    2. Preheat the Pan

    Preheat a 12-inch heavy or nonstick pan over medium-low heat for about 3 to 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and allow it to melt until the foam subsides.

    3. Cook the Omelet

    Pour the beaten egg mixture into the pan and increase the heat to medium. As the edges begin to cook, gently pull them towards the center with a spatula, allowing the uncooked egg to flow to the edges.

    4. Add Cheese

    Once most of the egg is set, sprinkle 4 ounces of grated Gruyère cheese over the surface. Carefully fold the omelet in half and slide it onto a plate.

    5. Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your omelet with a small pat of butter, letting it melt on top for added richness. Serve immediately.
