Remember your last trip to the Hyatt? The chef prepared a delightful made to order Omelet for you during the Sunday Brunch. This article will show you how to do just that!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Mushrooms.
  • 1/4 Onion.
  • 2 oz Black Forest Ham.
  • 1 oz Cheddar
  • 1 oz Jack.
  • 3 slices Avocado
  • Sour Cream.
  1. Step 1

    Crack two eggs in a bowl, add a little ½ & ½. Beat with a fork.

  2. Step 2

    Shred the jack and cheddar cheese, chop the Black Forest Ham and onions. Slice the avocado and the mushrooms.

  3. Step 3

    Saute the onions and mushrooms in olive oil. Add ham, toss, turn off heat and leave covered in pan while you prepare the eggs.

  4. Step 4

    Heat up an 8" skillet or Omelet pan.
    Melt butter over medium heat (do not brown) and add eggs.

    .

  5. Step 5

    Try to get almost all of the egg cooked on one side without browning the bottom. Do this by lifting up one side of the omelette with a heat resistant rubber spatula, allowing the egg to flow below the surface. Do this a couple of times. Now flip the Omelet over by giving the pan a quick forward and reverse jerk, with a tossing motion.

  6. Step 6

    After the Omelet is flipped, quickly sprinkle a thin layer of cheese. Add ham, mushrooms, onions, avocado slices and a couple of dollops of sour cream.

  7. Step 7

    As the cheese begins to melt, carefully start to slide half of the Omelet onto a plate. Using the skillet, fold the other half over itself.

  8. Step 8

    Garnish with a little Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to taste
