    How to make a carrot and egg omelette.
  • Allow the omelette to set for just about a minute then use your spatula to move the edges towards the center. This will leave some spaces in the pan; allow the runny eggs to flow into the spaces by slightly tilting your pan or skillet.
  • Cook for another 2-3 minutes, switch off the heat, and use a spatula to carefully fold the carrot omelet. Transfer it to a plate sprinkle with black pepper, and serve.

Notes

  • Prepare your ingredients in advance : because omelettes cook very fast, you don't want them overcooking before you have all your ingredients cleaned and chopped!
  • Non-stick pan: use a good quality, non-stick pan.
  • Fluffy eggs - for fluffy eggs, try whisking the egg whites separately before carefully folding these into the beaten yolks and veggie mixture.
