How to prepare omelette with mushrooms and cheese:

  1. Slice the mushrooms. Finely chop the chives and, if using, the spring onion.
  2. Heat a knob of butter in a frying pan and fry the mushrooms over medium heat until golden brown and cooked through. Then remove them from the pan and set aside.
  3. Beat the eggs with a dash of milk. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Heat some more butter in the pan. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let it set over low heat. Sprinkle immediately with some chili flakes, pepper and salt.
  5. Once the omelette is almost set, divide the fried mushrooms over the top. Then sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over it, so that it melts slightly.
  6. Remove the omelette from the heat and garnish with fresh chives and possibly some spring onion.

Tip: Vary with extra vegetables or meat

Add spinach, bell pepper, onion or turkey strips for even more flavor and nutrition. This way you make your omelette different every time, but always nutritious.
