Get some eggs (how many depends on how hungry you are, or how many you are feeding. 2 or 3 eggs per person should be good).

Preheat the pan over medium heat. You want the butter, marg or shortening to sizzle, but not brown.

Chop up or grate whatever you want to add to the eggs: minced potatoes, peppers, cheese, onions, garlic, pepperoni, ham, cooked bacon, etc.

Scramble the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water per egg. Beat til well-blended.

Stir in veggies or meat.

Pour into pre-heated pan. Let cook so bottom browns, occasionally lifting sides to let uncooked eggs run down into the pan.

When the bottom is nicely browned (lift and peek!), flip the omelette so it is folded in half (or flip so top side is now down, and will brown. This takes practice). Cook a bit longer.

Do not add salt and pepper until the cooking is done!

Serve with hot, fresh, buttered toast and juice or coffee!

French Omelet
Ingredients
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
Pinch kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Omelet filling suggestions, optional, follow

Directions
Combine the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and mix very well with a fork or a whisk. Set a plate by the stove. Heat a small (about 6 inches) seasoned omelet pan or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is warm, add the butter (it should sizzle gently). Swirl the pan to distribute the butter as it
melts. When the butter stops sizzling and the foam subsides add the eggs. Pause to let the eggs heat slightly and then
stir vigorously, with a heatproof spatula, making sure you include the sides of the egg mixture occasionally so the omelet cooks evenly. Once the eggs are just set, bang the pan gently on the burner to release the omelet from the pan. Check to see that it is not sticking to the sides or bottom of the pan, if so release the omelet with a heat proof spatula. Hold the pan at a 45-degree angle to the stove and carefully fold the omelet like a business letter. Cook just until the desired degree of doneness lifting the pan or reducing the heat to prevent browning. (A classic omelet doesn't have any browning on it.) Transfer to a warm plate and serve.

Omelet Filling Suggestions: There are many omelet fillings, both raw and cooked, sweet and savory. Here is a starting point, but feel free to improvise. Once the eggs are set add any of these ingredients before folding. An alternative method, to use with delicate fillings, like creme fraiche and herbs, fresh fruits or caviar; is it to roll the omelet and then slice the top open, as you would a baked potato, and then fill it. - 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs, like Italian parsley, basil, dill, tarragon, chives, thyme, and chervil. Use the herbs alone or in combination, like the classic combination fine herbs (equal parts parsley, chervil, chives and tarragon.) Brush the finished omelet with butter and sprinkle with additional herbs. Herbs can also be added to the omelet mixture to flavor the eggs more fully. - 2 to 3 tablespoons cooked vegetables like, chopped asparagus, spinach or other greens, zucchini, mushrooms, eggplant or peppers - 2 tablespoons diced fresh tomato or avocado - 2 tablespoons grated cheese, like Gruyere, Goat cheese, Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Gouda, Feta - 1 tablespoon currant jelly, then dust omelet with confectioner's sugar - 2 tablespoons chopped proscuitto or other ham, crumbled cooked bacon or other cured
meat - 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped smoked salmon or trout, with a tablespoon sour cream, cream cheese or creme fraiche -
1 tablespoon honey with 1 tablespoon ricotta cheese - 2 to 3 tablespoons sliced apples, pears or strawberries, alone or with a complimentary cheese.

SO simple its ridiculous !

Scramble some eggs in a bowl... pour them into a hot fry pan.(then reduce heat to med/low).. Do not stir, cover with lid...let it cook... after approx. 4 minutes place all your toppings on one half of this flat egg mix. Replace the lid and turn off the heat... let set for about 3 minutes more. Flip the empty half on top of the filled half. ENJOY !

The time amounts will vary due to you stove and pan.

You can fill an omelet with anything you can dream up.... there is no right or wrong... only opinion... Good Luck !

I only give this out because I'm too sick right now to realise what i'm doing. This is called "The Hamlet"
Melt a chitload of butter in a frying paneroo. Wiggle up some eggs with a little squirt of lactation in it. Sploodge the eggers into the pan over the melty butter. QUICKLY before the egg mush gets hard, splash some diced onions (amount depending on how many shots you did the night before) bacon bits (the soft fresh ones, not crunchy). Now you can slow down....let the eggers start to become erect. Add a couple slices of smoked, chipped ham. Look around for a bit. Throw one of your socks (not both of them) at the cat. Now add a fartload of cheddar cheese....I use at least 3 slices for a big one. Its simple and fast and very good, if you add too much too it you'll ruin it. Flip it. Dump it on a plate. Eat it all up. Go back to bed.

I have found the best way to make a FAT & FLUFFY omelet is to finish folding the ingrediants and then put about 2 TBLS water in the pan, cover , and ten steam for a bit...it makes the omelet "fluff" up

Mix the whole egg with cream and a little mayo. Dump it in the pan and cook it covered for a few minutes until it is solid. Shut off the heat, and add cheese, and other ingredients, I like peppers and onions and some brocolli and ham are good too. Then fold it over, and cover and leave it for a few minutes until the cheese melts.
Voila!
