Here's the best part: it's created with just five simple ingredients, proving that culinary elegance can indeed be effortless.


Ingredients:

  • 3 large eggs

  • 2 oz (approximately 4 tablespoons) cream cheese

  • 2 oz smoked salmon, thinly sliced

  • Fresh dill or chives (for garnish)

  • Butter or cooking oil for cooking

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk until well beaten.

  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add a small amount of butter or cooking oil.

  3. Once the butter melts or the oil is hot, pour the beaten eggs into the skillet.

  4. Swirl the pan to spread the eggs evenly and cook for about a minute until they begin to set but are still slightly runny on top.

  5. Cut the cream cheese into small pieces and distribute them evenly over one half of the omelette.

  6. Lay the smoked salmon slices on top of the cream cheese.

  7. Gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filling, creating a half-moon shape.

  8. Continue cooking for another minute or until the omelette is fully set and the cream cheese begins to melt.

  9. Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with freshly chopped chives, and serve hot.
