An egg omelette (low oil) is made by whisking eggs, cooking them in a small amount of oil, then folding them over. It’s a simple breakfast favourite in many places, served soft in the middle with lightly browned edges. Pair it with toast or crusty bread and fresh tomatoes or greens; it also works well as a quick lunch with a side salad.
Eggs make it a protein-rich choice: per 100 g, it provides 11.5 g of protein. For a lighter plate, use a good non-stick pan and measure the oil rather than pouring it freely; adding vegetables brings colour and freshness without making the omelette heavy.

An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

To make a low-oil egg omelette, beat the eggs, then pour them into a preheated nonstick pan lightly coated with oil. Cook over medium-low heat until mostly set, fold, and serve before the eggs turn dry.
For a fluffy low-oil egg omelette, beat the eggs just until the whites and yolks are combined, then cook gently over medium-low heat. Take it off the heat while the center is still soft; residual heat will finish cooking it.
A low-oil egg omelette usually sticks when the pan is not nonstick, is not preheated, or has too little oil spread across its surface. Warm the pan first and coat the base evenly before adding the eggs.
No, you do not have to flip a low-oil egg omelette. Once the top is nearly set, fold it in half and let the heat finish cooking it; flipping is an option if you prefer both sides browned.
No, milk is not necessary in a low-oil egg omelette. Eggs alone make a tender omelette when cooked gently, while extra liquid can leave it wetter and make it harder to fold neatly.
You can add herbs, cooked mushrooms, peppers, spinach, or a little cheese to a low-oil egg omelette. Cook watery vegetables first so their moisture does not make the eggs soggy.
A small or medium nonstick skillet with a flat base works best for a low-oil egg omelette. It lets a thin coating of oil cover the cooking surface and makes folding the omelette easier.
Serve a low-oil egg omelette with toast, sliced tomatoes, or a green salad for a simple meal. For a heartier breakfast, add avocado or roasted vegetables rather than relying on extra cheese or oil.
A low-oil egg omelette keeps in the refrigerator for up to three days when cooled promptly and stored in a covered container. Discard it if it has been left at room temperature for an extended time.
Yes, you can reheat a low-oil egg omelette in a covered skillet over low heat or in the microwave. Heat it just until warm, since prolonged reheating can make the eggs tough and dry.
