Notes
- For making a fluffy omelette whisk eggs nicely. I use an electric beater to whip egg whites to get frothy soft peaks.
- Another thing I take care while cooking souffle omelette is heat. You will have to cook it on slow heat so that eggs are cooked nicely from inside.
- Cover the pan while cooking omelette. All these steps ensure the perfect cooking of omelet.
- I used spring onion for more flavor if you like you can substitute with red onions as well.
- You can fold it as I do, or maybe just flip it, cook the other side and then add cheese on top. Totally your call.
