Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
- 5 large egg whites
- 3 large egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, halved
- salt, to taste
- pepper, to taste
- fresh chives, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Separate the egg whites and the egg yolks in two separate bowls. You’ll only need 3 yolks, so discard the other 2 or reserve for another use.

- Transfer the egg whites to a large bowl and whisk until they triple in size and become white with medium peaks.
- Carefully fold the egg yolks into the egg whites until fully incorporated.
- Pour the egg mixture into a medium nonstick frying pan with a lid. Cook over medium-low heat until bottom of omelet has set, about 5 minutes.
- Lift up each side of the omelette and drop a tablespoon of butter underneath.
- Cover the pan and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the top of the omelet has set.
- Remove the lid and season the omelet with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Fold the omelette onto a plate and sprinkle with chives.
- Enjoy!
