How To Make The Perfect Egg Omelette No Flip Technique

[Music] hey youtube this is paul uh we're going to do a cooking video today i'm going to show you how to make an omelette this is going to be a very simple egg omelette omelets are great because number one eggs are cheap at least they always have them where i live um eggs used to be one of my favorite things to cook because on plant-based i don't eat them anymore but i still have fun cooking them for other people who do enjoy them and omelettes are wonderful because they can be packed with really whatever you like this is just going to be an egg omelette but you know you can put whatever you want in it so let's take a look at what we're going to do we're going to start with a medium non-stick skillet uh that was my spatula you just saw it coming in the frame i have a high temperature silicone spatula that we're going to use and we're going to put some butter in the pan i like cooking with butter but you could always use olive oil or a cooking spray if you wanted to while that is cooking down we're going to put season our eggs with some salt this is just three eggs that have been beaten together there's no milk or water in there although you could certainly add that which would increase your volume of eggs and increase the fluffiness if you wanted to use that but i'm just doing this again just just something kind of simple so it's just eggs so we're going to add our butter into the pan and as you can see this pan was warming before we started the video so uh so we started with a warm pan which is important um you don't want to just throw your butter into a cold pan and turn the fire on because the butter will cook off you're gonna have a problem you can't cook anything with a cold pan okay added our eggs and we're gonna start moving this egg around to try and get all around the hot surface of the pan trick with getting an omelette cooked but not overdone is to keep it moving uh not as much as you would for like scrambled eggs so we're trying to get all this liquid cooked off here it doesn't take long like i said we started with a medium low fire now we're going to be doing the no flip omelette technique meaning we're not going to flip this over so all this liquid that's you see on top here we're just going to cook off just by gently moving the egg around as you can see i was taking my spatula and just you know kind of kind of moving that liquid to the sides to where i can get it onto a part of the pan that is clear now at this point as you can see we've got most of that cooked down the egg is still nice and soft nice skin has started to set up if we wanted to add cheese we could add cheese or if we had cooked veggies or ham or something we would just add it in there flip this oh poke our egg a little bit there it's okay if you're gonna make it almost break a few eggs and we're just going to bring it over here onto our plate and use the pan to flip it over and there you go now you could always just garnish it with some cheese on top if you wanted but there you have a professional looking omelet like you would get in any restaurant just as a side note you saw there was just a little tiny bit of liquid on top of the you know on the top layer of the eggs or something if some of you are worried about that some people like eating their eggs that way for some of you that are worried about that saying oh well that egg wasn't cooked all the way through this is at a high enough temperature that as it sits here on the plate it will continue to cook for a couple minutes just give it a minute or two and it'll be cooked all the way through and all that stuff will be gone it'll all be solid egg so anyway i hope you enjoyed that uh have fun making omelettes filling with lots of great stuff and let me know how you like it thanks for watching
