What you’ll need

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Make it happen

Directions

  1. 1

    Beat eggs slightly, just enough to blend yolks and whites, add the milk and seasonings. Put butter in hot omelet pan; when melted, turn in the mixture; as it cooks, prick and pick up with a fork until the whole is of creamy consistency. Place on hotter part of range that it may brown quickly underneath. Fold, and turn on hot platter.
