An omelette made with two eggs is a simple pan-cooked dish: beaten eggs set in the pan and are often folded over. Versions of omelettes appear in many cuisines, and this straightforward style is at home on breakfast tables as well as in quick lunches and suppers.
It should be tender inside, with a lightly golden surface, and is best served warm. Pair it with toast or salad, or add herbs and vegetables to the eggs. It provides protein with very little carbohydrate; for a lighter plate, cook it with just a little oil and serve alongside 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 a two-egg omelette, beat the eggs until combined and pour them into a lightly buttered, heated pan. As the edges set, gently draw them toward the centre; fold the omelette while the top is still slightly soft and remove it from the heat.
For a fluffy two-egg omelette, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are just combined, cook over moderate heat, and avoid pressing the omelette down. A small splash of water can make the texture lighter without making the egg mixture too rich.
You can add a little milk to a two-egg omelette, but it is not necessary. Too much milk can make the mixture watery and harder to set. For a more pronounced egg flavour and a tender result, cook the beaten eggs without milk.
A two-egg omelette usually sticks when the pan is not hot enough or the cooking surface is not lightly greased. Preheat a non-stick pan over moderate heat, add a little butter or oil, and let it coat the base before pouring in the eggs.
No, you do not have to flip a two-egg omelette; folding it once the bottom has set is the simpler method. If you want both sides browned, wait until it is firm enough, then turn it carefully with a wide spatula.
Cheddar, feta, goat cheese, or Swiss cheese all work well in a two-egg omelette. Add crumbled or grated cheese while the top is still slightly soft, then fold the omelette so the cheese warms and melts inside.
A two-egg omelette works well with cooked mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, peppers, herbs, or cheese. Cook watery vegetables first and drain them; adding them raw can release moisture and make the omelette difficult to fold.
A cooked two-egg omelette keeps for up to three days in the refrigerator when stored in a covered container. Refrigerate it promptly rather than leaving it at room temperature, and reheat it thoroughly before eating.
Yes, you can reheat a two-egg omelette. Warm it gently in a covered pan over low heat to limit drying, or use a microwave in short intervals, turning it once so it heats more evenly.
A two-egg omelette can fit a weight-loss breakfast because its protein can help make a meal satisfying. Pair it with vegetables or fruit, and keep in mind that added butter, cheese, and processed meats can make the meal more energy-dense.
