  • Under low-medium heat, add a small amount of olive oil and pour the egg mixture into the frying pan.
  • Cook/set the omelette by using an egg spatula to lift the side of the omelette and tilt so the egg runs over the sides.
  • On one half of the omelette layer with the mushrooms, spinach and onions.

Notes

  •  
  • This omelette is free from gluten and paleo friendly, as well as being vegetarian.
  • Whisk the eggs together. Whisking helps to really incorporate the whites and the yolks. There should be no white or yellow strands and the mixture should be light yellow that's a little frothy.
  • Be sure to add the oil to the pan before adding the egg mixture. If you don't the eggs can stick and you won't be able to remove it from the pan in one piece.
  • Cook the omelette on a low-medium heat. If the pan is too hot the underneath will burn.
  • I used a 24cm frying/skillet you use a larger pan then increase the eggs inclusion by 1-2 eggs.
