Description

Imagine starting your day with a fluffy, golden omelette, its surface kissed with a delicate brown hue. This isn't just any omelette; it's a savory masterpiece, carefully crafted to deliver a symphony of flavors and textures in every bite. Picture this: a generous blanket of melted cheddar cheese, its sharp tang perfectly balanced by the subtle sweetness of diced ham.

The cheese, with its creamy, almost velvety texture, stretches invitingly as you cut into the omelette, promising a rich and satisfying experience. The ham, cooked to tender perfection, offers a delightful chewiness that contrasts beautifully with the softness of the eggs. But the magic doesn't stop there.

Fresh chives, finely chopped and scattered throughout the omelette, add a burst of freshness and a hint of oniony aroma that awakens the senses. Their vibrant green color provides a visual appeal, adding to the overall aesthetic of the dish. The preparation method is key to achieving the omelette's exceptional texture.

It begins in a skillet, where the eggs are gently cooked until they form a soft and pillowy base. Then, it's transferred to the oven, where it finishes cooking, allowing the top to set and develop a beautiful golden-brown color. This combination of skillet and oven cooking ensures that the omelette is cooked evenly, resulting in a light and airy texture that is both comforting and satisfying.

This omelette is not just a meal; it's an experience. Whether enjoyed as a leisurely breakfast on a weekend morning or a quick and satisfying lunch during a busy weekday, it's sure to please. Its versatility makes it a perfect choice for any occasion.

Serve it alongside a fresh green salad for a complete and balanced meal, or enjoy it on its own as a hearty and flavorful dish. The possibilities are endless. Each bite is a harmonious blend of savory, cheesy, and herbaceous notes, creating a truly unforgettable culinary experience.

It's a dish that is both simple to make and elegant in its presentation, making it a perfect choice for both novice and experienced cooks alike. Prepare to be transported to a world of culinary delight with this exceptional omelette.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
    2.
    Add the eggs to a mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Beat well to combine.
    3.
    Add the grated cheese to the bowl and tear in the ham in bite sized chunks. Finely chop the chives and add to the bowl. Beat everything together well to combine.
    4.
    Melt the butter in an oven proof skillet over a medium/high heat. Add the egg mixture and leave to settle for a minute. As the egg begins to cook at the edges, use a spatula to bring the cooked edges towards the center of the skillet, allowing the uncooked egg to flow into the gaps.
    5.
    Once the omelette is about 2/3 cooked, with some liquid still remaining on top, transfer to the oven and bake for a further 8-10 minutes until cooked through and golden brown all over.
