Cook the Omelette

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Brush a thin layer of cooking oil onto the pan. Pour a portion of the egg mixture into the pan, swirling to create an even, thin layer. When the egg is mostly set, use a spatula to carefully roll it up towards one side of the pan. Pour another thin layer of egg mixture into the empty part of the pan. Once set, roll the existing log over the new layer. Repeat until all the egg mixture is used.

Tip: For easier rolling, ensure each layer of egg is relatively thin.

Slice and Serve

Once the entire omelette is rolled, carefully transfer it to a cutting board. Let it cool slightly, then use a sharp knife to slice the roll into bite-sized pieces (about 1-inch or 2-3 cm thick). Arrange the slices on a plate to serve.
