Omelette (4 eggs) is made by beating eggs and cooking them in a pan, then folding or serving them whole.

The eggs set into a tender centre with a lightly browned outside; serve it for breakfast or a quick lunch, on its own or with toast, salad or vegetables. It is protein-rich and low in carbohydrates, making it a substantial choice for a simple meal. For a lighter plate, cook it with just a little oil and add plenty of vegetables.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
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.

Beat the four eggs with a little salt, then pour them into a lightly buttered or oiled pan over medium heat. As the edges set, gently draw them inward; fold the omelette while the centre is still slightly soft, then serve.
Let the base set before folding, and loosen the edges with a thin spatula first. Keep fillings modest and spread them over one half only; lifting that half over the other is easier than trying to roll a heavily filled omelette.
Cheese, sautéed mushrooms, spinach, peppers, onions, and cooked ham all work well in an omelette made with four eggs. Cook watery vegetables before adding them, and let hot fillings cool slightly so they do not make the eggs runny.
No, you do not need milk or water in an omelette made with four eggs. Thoroughly beaten eggs cooked gently give a tender result; adding too much liquid can make the omelette watery and harder to fold.
Beat the eggs until the whites and yolks are fully blended, then cook them gently in a warm pan without overcooking. A quick whisk adds some air, but baking powder is unnecessary and can give the omelette an unpleasant texture.
An omelette made with four eggs turns rubbery when it is cooked too long or over high heat. Remove it while the centre is just set or still slightly soft; residual heat will finish the cooking without drying out the eggs.
Yes, you can cook an omelette with four eggs ahead, though it is best freshly made. Refrigerate it promptly in a covered container and use it within 3–4 days; reheat until steaming hot, or prepare the beaten eggs and fillings separately for a fresher texture.
Yes, you can freeze an omelette made with four eggs, but thawing may make it less tender. Cool it completely, wrap individual portions airtight, and thaw them in the refrigerator before reheating thoroughly; omelettes with watery vegetables may become especially soft.
It can be a filling breakfast because eggs provide protein, but the additions and portion size matter. Choose vegetables and a modest amount of cheese rather than large amounts of butter, processed meat, or cream, which can make the meal substantially richer.
Not necessarily, but people with high LDL cholesterol or specific dietary advice may need to limit whole eggs. The right frequency varies with health and the rest of the diet, so ask your clinician or dietitian if you have been told to restrict cholesterol.
