4 whites
4 yolks
1 tablespoon of butter
4 whites
4 yolks
1 tablespoon of butter
Beat the whites until stiff and frothy; add 2 tablespoons of water and beat until a firm meringue forms
Beat the yolks until they thicken and take on a light color
Add the yolks to the whites, mixing well
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet with a diameter of about 10 inches
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it evenly, leaving a little higher at the edges
Reduce heat and cook for 7-8 minutes, or until the eggs have firmed up and the bottom is golden brown
Before serving, cover half of the omelette with chopped bell peppers, prosciutto in strips or squares, and one or two tomato slices
When ready, loosen the edges of the omelette, cut it in half, and slide it out of the skillet onto a plate
Fold the omelette in quarters
