Ingredients
- 201g Egg
- 100g Mature spinach
- 50g Crumbled feta cheese
Method
- 1Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- 2Add the mature spinach to the hot pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted and any excess moisture has evaporated. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.
- 3Crack all 4 eggs into a bowl and whisk vigorously for 30-45 seconds until fully combined and slightly frothy. This creates a fluffier omelette. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- 4Return the skillet to medium heat and apply another light coat of cooking spray. Pour the whisked eggs into the center of the pan.
- 5Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 30-45 seconds until the bottom begins to set. Using a silicone spatula, gently push the cooked egg toward the center of the pan while tilting the skillet to allow the raw egg to flow to the edges.
- 6When the top is still slightly wet but the bottom and sides are set (about 2-3 minutes total), distribute the sautéed spinach across one half of the omelette.
- 7Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the spinach and remaining egg surface.
- 8Cook for another 30 seconds to allow the feta to warm slightly. Fold the omelette in half using your spatula, with the feta and spinach on the inside.
- 9Slide onto a plate immediately and serve. The residual heat will continue cooking the center. Total cooking time is 4-5 minutes.
