Omelette Tips
- Make sure your pan is preheated and on low to medium heat. You don’t want it on high or the bottom can burn and make it hard to flip.
- I like to cover my pan with a lid for about 2 minutes so the top of the omelette starts to cook a little on top. Your omelette will also cook faster this way.
- Make sure to whip the eggs and the cream well together for a nice fluffy airy omelette.
- Use a silicone spatula, as it helps to reduce tearing!
