Ingredients:

2 eggs

1 bell pepper

A block of cheese

Cooking oil

Parsley flakes and thyme leaves

Directions:

Before starting: Preheat a cooking pan on medium heat, adding enough cooking oil to coat but not soak the eggs.

1. In a bowl, break and scramble the two eggs.

2. Shred the cheese block in a separate bowl to the amount you desire to have in your omelette. I personally shred only about a handful, but if you want more of less that is up to you.

3. Chop up at an eighth of the bell pepper into little pieces.

4. In the bowl with the scrambled eggs, add the chopped bell pepper, pinches of parsley flakes and thyme leaves for seasoning.

5.  Put the mixture onto the cooking pan.

6. Add the cheese to it by sprinkling the cheese around. Watch for the edges, if they turn white and are bubbling, they are becoming cooked. Let it melt.

7. Fry the egg for 3-4 minutes, and test to see if you can flip it by nudging the sides with a spatula. When you are able to do so, flip the omelette in half.

8. Cook for another minute, then flip the entire omelette onto the other side.

9.  Wait until both sides are fully cooked before turning off heat and placing the omelette on a plate.

10. Your omelette is finally ready, eat and enjoy!
