Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk or cream, and season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Whisk the mixture until well combined. Set it aside.
- Chop the smoked salmon into small pieces. You can adjust the amount of salmon according to your preference.
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
- Once the butter has melted and is bubbling slightly, pour the egg mixture into the pan. As the eggs begin to set around the edges, use a spatula to gently push the cooked eggs toward the center of the pan. Tilt the pan to let the uncooked eggs fill in the gaps. Continue this process until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top.
- Sprinkle the chopped smoked salmon evenly over one half of the omelette. Add small dollops of cream cheese or goat cheese on top of the salmon.
- Carefully lift the empty side of the omelette with a spatula and fold it over the side with the salmon and cheese, creating a half-moon shape.
- Allow the omelette to cook for another minute or so, just until the cheese starts to melt and the omelette is cooked to your desired level of doneness. If you prefer a slightly runny center, remove it from the heat a bit earlier.
- Slide the smoked salmon omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. You can also drizzle a little extra cream cheese or sour cream on top for extra richness.
- Serve the smoked salmon omelette hot and enjoy your delicious and savory breakfast!
