So this morning I did home fries (Used salt, pepper, cayenne, tarragon and garlic on them.) and ham and cheese omelets.

Now the omelets, I have a 5 quart non-stick pot. I did the omelets in there and it works fine. Same technique as always, bit less than a tablespoon of unsalted butter in the pan over med-low heat until it browns. While this is going on drop 2 or 3 eggs in a bowl and whisk until whites and yolks are completely combined. Now dump in that hot pan.

Now the key is to use a thin spatula to separate the egg from the edge of the pan, in essence being sure the eggs don’t stick and the egg mass is on the butter. Takes maybe 1-3 minutes then stuff with whatever you’d like – a little shallot and garlic, a little ham and cheese. It’s all up to you. Run about 1-2 tbsp down the middle of omelet. Then ease over once side to cover. Slide onto a plate and done.

The key is you need a non-stick pan. Or a brand spanking new pan without non-stick if you’re good with that.
