Method

  1. Cook the mushrooms

    Cook the mushrooms, sliced in the pan until their water releases and evaporates, then set aside.

    5:00

  2. Beat the eggs

    Beat the eggs, season with salt & pepper, and pour into a hot pan with the oil or margarine.

  3. Start the omelette

    As the egg sets, tip the pan and pull the edges in so the runny egg flows underneath.

  4. Fill and fold

    Scatter the slices cooked ham and mushrooms over one half, then fold and finish in the residual heat — don't overcook.

  5. Serve

    Slide onto a plate and eat straight away.

Notes

Around 350 kcal and 29g protein. Naturally lactose-free (check the ham). Cooking the mushrooms dry first stops the omelette going soggy. A handful of wilted spinach is a good addition.
