How to make Spinach and Mushroom Omelette
- Prepare the Egg Mixture:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Cook the Vegetables:
- Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 3–4 minutes until tender. Stir in the spinach leaves and cook for 1–2 minutes until wilted. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the Omelette:
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting it to spread evenly. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1–2 minutes until they begin to set around the edges.
- Add the Fillings:
- Spread the sautéed mushrooms and spinach over one half of the omelette. Sprinkle with shredded cheese if desired.
- Fold and Serve:
- Gently fold the omelette in half to cover the filling. Cook for another minute to allow the cheese to melt. Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve warm.
