Tips:

  • Don't overcook the eggs: Omelets should be cooked until they are just set, but still slightly runny in the center. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
  • Season the eggs well: Don't be afraid to add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Use a good quality non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the eggs from sticking and make it easier to flip the omelet.
  • Be patient: Omelets take a little practice to get right. Don't get discouraged if your first few attempts aren't perfect. Just keep practicing and you'll eventually get the hang of it.

Conclusion:

Basil and feta omelets are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They are packed with flavor and nutrients, and they can be customized to your liking.
