Basic Omelette

Directions

1. 1
   Use a fork to beat together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a medium bowl until blended but not foamy.
2. 2
   Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a medium non-stick skillet.
3. 3
   Swirl the butter around in the pan until it stops foaming.
4. 4
   Pour in the eggs and reduce the heat to medium.
5. 5
   As the mixture sets, lift the edges of the egg with a spatula and tilt the skillet so uncooked egg flows underneath. Do not stir.
6. 6
   Continue cooking until the omelet is moist but not runny, about 3 minutes.
7. 7
   If making a filled omelet, top it with your choice of filling.
8. 8
   Use a large spatula to loosen the edge of the omelet and fold it in half.
9. 9
   Slide it onto a plate, top with a few spoonfuls of salsa, if using, and serve.
