Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Omelet
Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Omelet
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 4 ounces smoked salmon thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese softened
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt to taste
Instructions
Whisk the Eggs:
- In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add a pinch of salt. Whisk vigorously until the eggs are frothy and well combined. This introduces air and makes the omelet fluffier.
Prepare the Omelet:
- Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and foamy.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs evenly coat the bottom.
- Cook without stirring for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift from the pan.
Add Fillings:
- Dot the cream cheese across one half of the omelet while it’s still slightly runny on top.
- Arrange the smoked salmon over the same half.
Fold and Serve:
- Once the bottom of the omelet is golden and the top is set but still creamy, carefully fold the omelet in half over the filling using a spatula.
- Let it cook for another minute to ensure the cream cheese melts slightly.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately
