Mary Berry is one of Britain’s greatest cooks as she has years of experience perfecting her recipes and one delicious yet simple dish she has shared is her cheesy omelette.

She first shared her omelette recipe in 1987, and explained that everybody should know how to cook up an omelette.

Mary said; “An omelette is a good idea when you want something speedy, and this is the sort of omelette that when you open the fridge door you think ‘Now that’s for supper.’”

However, after 30 years showed once again how to make an omelette as part of the Mary Berry’s Quick Cooking Show which first aired on the BBC in 2019.

Mary Berry revealed that this recipe will make the “quickest French-inspired” omelette as it takes less than five minutes to make.

Method 

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add some water and quickly whisk it with a fork then add the chopped-up chives, which can be quickly cut with a pair of scissors. Add both salt and pepper to the mixture and then whisk it again.

Place a pan on the stove and add some butter until sizzling and then pour in the omelette mixture.

Even the omelette mixture out with a spatula. Mary said she stirred it from the right in order to make the edges “really brown” once she tipped the omelette onto a plate.

If any bubble developed, Mary said to simply “give it a bang” with the spatula, otherwise the omelette would come out uneven.

Once it is browning and cooked, sprinkle in the greeted cheese and fold it over in the pan.

It can then be placed on a plate and ready to serve, and you will have a cheesy and gooey delicious omelette cooked like a professional chef.
