  • Step 2: In a bowl add the eggs along with a bit of cream and salt and pepper; beat with a fork.

  • Step 3: In a frying pan or skillet over medium heat melt 1 tablespoon of butter and then add the mushrooms, cook stirring for 5-10 minutes . Season with salt and pepper along with the garlic and 1 1/2 tablespoons cream; stir and cook for a minute or so and then set aside.

  • Step 4: In a frying pan over medium heat, melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and then pour in half of the egg/omelet mixture. using a spatula, bring the set edges into the center and let the runny eggs flow into the gaps a few times and then just leave it to cook for about a minute or so.

  • Step 5: When omelet is almost done, but still a bit wet in the middle, scatter about half of the grated cheese, green cheese (if using) and the mushrooms. Using a spatula to help fold the omelet in half, ease it out of the pan and onto a plate.

  • Step 6: Repeat for second omelet using the rest of the cheese and mushrooms.
