Ingredients

4 eggs

1/4 cup mixed herbs, chopped

30 gram butter

1/3 cup tasty cheese, grated

50 gram baby spinach leaves

1/4 cup (optional) sliced semi-sundried tomatoes

thick toast, to serve

crispy prosciutto, to serve

Method

1.In a large jug, whisk eggs and herbs together, until well combined. Season to taste.

2.Melt a little butter in an omelette pan. Pour in a quarter of egg mixture. It should start to set around the edge almost straight away.

3.Using a spatula, pull the edge of the omelette away from the side of the pan, allowing uncooked mixture to run underneath and cook.

4.When egg mixture no longer runs freely but the surface looks creamy, top with 1/4 each cheese, spinach leaves and tomatoes.

5.Fold omelette in half to cover filling and slide onto plate. Serve hot with toast and prosciutto. Repeat with remaining egg mixture and filling.

We used chives and basil in the omelette, but you could use parsley, if preferred. Great for any meal of the day.
