🧂 Ingrédients
- 3 Eggs(Large, fresh eggs at room temperature)
- 30 g Unsalted Butter(Approximately 2 tablespoons. High-quality butter is recommended.)
- 1 tbsp Fresh Chervil(Finely chopped)
- 1 tbsp Fresh Chives(Finely chopped)

👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Prepare the herbs: Finely chop the fresh chervil, chives, parsley, and tarragon. Set aside.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 2
Whisk the eggs: In a small bowl, gently whisk the eggs with a fork until the yolks and whites are just combined. Avoid over-whisking, which can incorporate too much air. Stir in the chopped herbs, salt, and pepper. The mixture should be evenly colored and fragrant.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 3
Heat the pan: Place a non-stick skillet (8-10 inch diameter is ideal) over medium-high heat. Add the butter. Allow it to melt completely and begin to foam. As the foaming subsides and the butter is just starting to turn golden, swirl it to coat the entire bottom and sides of the pan.
⏱️ 1 minute - 4
Cook the omelette: Pour the egg mixture into the hot, buttered pan. Immediately begin to stir the eggs rapidly with the back of a fork or a heatproof spatula in a circular motion, while simultaneously shaking the pan back and forth. This action scrambles the eggs gently and creates small curds, preventing them from setting into a solid layer.
⏱️ 45 seconds - 5
Form the omelette: Stop stirring when the eggs are mostly set but still appear wet and creamy on the surface. Tilt the pan away from you and use your fork or spatula to gently coax the edges of the omelette to pull away from the sides. Allow any uncooked egg to flow underneath.
⏱️ 15 seconds - 6
Roll and serve: Fold the omelette in half or in thirds by tilting the pan and gently rolling it onto itself. Slide the finished omelette onto a warm plate, seam-side down. The exterior should be pale yellow and tender, with a creamy, custardy interior.
