Greek Omelette

Greek omelettes bring Mediterranean flair to your breakfast table. This version incorporates tangy feta, briny kalamata olives, and fresh tomatoes for authentic flavour. Whisking water into the eggs creates a fluffier texture. As you cook, gently push the set edges towards the centre, allowing uncooked egg to flow outwards. The result is a light and fuffy omelette perfect for any time of the day.
