Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoon milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon fresh chives (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 ounce Gruyere cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 baguette (sliced)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the large eggs, milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Stir in the fresh chives, fresh tarragon, and fresh parsley.
- Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in an 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in one-third of the egg mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes, gently pushing the cooked egg from the edges towards the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
- When the top is mostly set but still a little wet, sprinkle with 1/2 ounce of shredded Gruyere cheese. Fold the omelet in half and slide it onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture and olive oil to make 2 more omelets.
- Slice the baguette and wash the cherry tomatoes.
- Serve each warm omelet with slices of baguette and fresh cherry tomatoes.
Notes
Cook omelets gently on medium-low heat to ensure they are fluffy and not browned. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook one omelet at a time for best results.
