1. Crack two eggs into a bowl.
2. Whisk the eggs together with a pinch of salt and pepper.
3. Heat a small non-stick frying pan on medium-high heat.
4. Add a tablespoon of butter to the pan and swirl it around to evenly coat the surface.
5. Once the butter has melted, add the egg mixture to the pan and use a rubber spatula to slowly scramble the eggs.
6. As the eggs cook, use the spatula to push the cooked portions of the egg towards the center of the pan and tilt the edges of the pan so the uncooked portion flows towards the edge.
7. Once the eggs have cooked and the mixture looks set, carefully fold one edge of the omelette over onto itself.
8. Gently slide the omelette onto a plate and enjoy your delicious omelette.
