Ingredients
 
 

  • 6 large eggs
  • 40 grams ham, diced small optional
  • 20 grams carrots, diced small
  • 20 grams green onions (or leeks), diced small
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • mozzarella or cheddar cheese optional: use as little or as much as you want!

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, crack eggs. Add diced ham, carrots, green onions, and salt and pepper. Mix the ingredients together.

  • Lightly brush a pan with oil and set the heat on low. Add some egg mix to the pan, allowing it to spread. Make sure the egg mix makes a thin, solid layer that covers the bottom of the pan.

  • Add the cheese close to one side of the omelet leaving about a 3 cm (2 in) space from the edge.

  • When the egg has slightly solidified but still has a sticky surface, use a spatula to fold the edge over the cheese.

  • Continue to roll (or fold) the omelet until a few centimeters of the opposite edge remains, making a tail. Push the roll to one side, letting the tail face the open space of the pan.

  • Add more egg to the empty space and spread it across the pan making sure it touches the tail of the omelet. Allow the tail to connect with the raw egg as it cooks. Then continue rolling as the previous steps.

  • Repeat the step above until you use all the raw egg mixture. Lock the edges by searing each side of the omelet log for 20 seconds.
