Preparation
Anyone can make an omelette. But to make a masterpiece omelette, you need to pay attention to the following.
Stir fry at high heat the extras in a bit of olive oil and add spices. Be creative with the extras, the guideline ones above make for a great starting combination. When they are starting to burn, add the wine and keep closed with a lid for 1-2 min.
Mix eggs, milk, oil and spices. Add to the frying pan with the rest of the ingredients and gently move them around fast so the base covers everything.
Lower the fire to below half strength and cover the pan. Let cook until the base solidifies, gets thicker by steam and starts burning in the bottom. The trick is to keep low heat, eggs do not need high heat to cook.
Once confident the bottom is cooked, move the pan back and forth to unstick the whole omelette from the bottom. You may need the assistance of a wooden spoon. Once it is unstuck, slide to the lid with the bottom of the omelette touching the lid. It should still be in one piece.
Now close the lid in one motion to cook the other side of the omelette. Add grated cheese on top, and maybe ham. Cook until the cheese melts.
If done in awesome way, you end up with a masterpiece omelette. Which is in one piece and not heavy.
