Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.

  2. 2

    Heat the butter or olive oil in an 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and shimmering, or the oil is hot.

  3. 3

    Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet. As the edges begin to set, gently push the cooked egg from the edges towards the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath.

  4. 4

    Once the top is mostly set but still slightly moist, sprinkle the shredded cheese and diced ham over one half of the omelette.

  5. 5

    Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is heated through.

  6. 6

    Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
