Ingredients
2 eggs
⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon dried dill
2 grinds fresh ground black pepper
½ teaspoon water
½ tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons feta cheese
¼ cup smoked salmon, flaked (1 ounce)
1 teaspoon chopped chives
Method- In a small bowl, crack the eggs. Whisk vigorously together with the kosher salt, dill, pepper and water until frothy and all egg whites are incorporated.
- Heat the olive oil in a small 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- When the olive oil is shimmering, add the eggs and cook for 2 minutes without stirring. Shake the pan a bit to continue evenly cooking the eggs as they start to set.
- When egg is almost set, push a side of the omelette towards the center to allow any uncooked egg to drain underneath and cook.
- Add the salmon, feta, and then chives on half of the circle of egg.
- Gently fold the other half over the top (you can leave some of the filling exposed as shown).
- Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute until the egg is fully cooked. Use a spatula to carefully remove it to a plate and eat immediately.
