| 3 | eggs (for serving) |
| 1 tbsp | butter |
| 50 g | shredded Gruyère cheese |
| salt | |
| chives (for serving) | |
| bread (for serving) | |
| salad (for serving) |
Separate the eggs, adding the yolks to a small bowl and the whites to a separate small bowl. Season the egg whites with salt and whisk to stiff peaks. Whisk the egg yolks until well combined.
Whisk in half the egg whites to the yolks, then fold in remaining egg whites with a rubber spatula.
Add butter to a small nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Once melted, swirl to coat the pan, then add the egg mixture and gently smooth the top. Add half the cheese, cover the frying pan, and let cook for approx. 3 min.
Uncover, add remaining cheese, and check the bottom of the omelette. It should be golden brown and the top of the omelette should be barely set with the melted cheese. Slide the omelette onto a plate, folding in half as you go. Garnish with chives and serve with a piece of toast and a salad. Enjoy!
