Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Crumble the feta with a fork and divide it into four portions; cut the butter into four equal pieces.

  2. 2

    For each omelette, beat 3 eggs in a bowl with 15 g of milk and a quarter of the salt until frothy (keep the salt light, as the cheese is salty).

  3. 3

    Melt one piece of butter in a 20 cm nonstick pan over medium-low heat, pour in the eggs and stir gently with a spatula for the first 20 seconds.

  4. 4

    Cook for 2-3 minutes until the top is just slightly moist, then scatter one portion of the cheese over half.

  5. 5

    Fold the omelette in half, cook for 30 more seconds and slide onto a plate.

  6. 6

    Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve the four omelettes hot.
