METHOD

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.

Heat a medium non-stick frying pan and add enough mixture to cover the bottom. Allow to cook for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture starts to bubble. Add any filling you like and fold to cook for a further 3-5 minutes until cooked all the way through and golden.

This mix should make 2-3 omelettes in total.
