An egg omelette cooked with olive oil is made by beating eggs and setting them in a pan with olive oil. It is a simple home-cooked preparation rather than a dish tied to one particular region. The eggs can be folded while still soft, or cooked until lightly browned at the edges, as in the pictured version.
It works for breakfast or a quick lunch, served with toast, salad or vegetables; in many places it is also an easy brunch option. Egg Omelette (Olive Oil) provides protein and fat, with very little carbohydrate: a 100 g portion has 10.8 g of protein. For a lighter plate, use just enough oil to coat the pan and serve it with fresh vegetables.

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 an egg omelette with olive oil, beat the eggs, then pour them into a lightly oiled pan over medium-low heat. Let the edges set before folding, and remove it while the center is still tender.
Yes, extra-virgin olive oil works well for an egg omelette when cooked over moderate heat. Avoid letting the oil smoke; excessive heat can give the omelette a bitter, scorched flavor.
An egg omelette made with olive oil can stick if the pan is cold, the surface is damaged, or the eggs are moved before they begin to set. Warm the pan first and use a well-seasoned or nonstick pan.
An egg omelette with olive oil has a fruitier flavor, while butter gives it a richer, creamy taste. Both work; olive oil is a good option if you want to avoid dairy or prefer its flavor.
You can add a small splash of water to an egg omelette made with olive oil for a lighter texture, but it is not necessary. Milk makes the result richer and softer; too much liquid can make it watery.
For a fluffy egg omelette with olive oil, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are combined, then cook them gently without pressing down. Folding the omelette while the top is still slightly moist helps keep it tender.
Yes, you can make an egg omelette with olive oil ahead of time and refrigerate it in a covered container once it has cooled. For the best texture, eat it within three days and reheat it gently.
Yes, an egg omelette made with olive oil can be frozen, though thawing may make its texture less tender. Cool it completely, wrap it airtight, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating.
An egg omelette made with olive oil pairs well with toast, a green salad, sautéed vegetables, or sliced tomatoes. For a Mediterranean-style meal, serve it with olives and fresh herbs.
Yes, vegetables work well in an egg omelette made with olive oil. Cook watery ingredients such as mushrooms or tomatoes first, then add the eggs; this prevents excess liquid from making the omelette soggy.
