Ingredients

Directions

  1. Whisk the eggs in a bowl until well combined and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat a medium non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat and add 1 teaspoon of oil.
  3. Fry the bacon for 5 minutes until crisp, adding the sweetcorn halfway through cooking until golden.
  4. Remove the bacon and sweetcorn with a slotted spoon and set aside on a plate, covering to keep warm.
  5. Add the remaining oil to the pan and swirl to coat the surface.
  6. Pour one-quarter of the egg mixture into the pan and swirl again to coat evenly.
  7. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the eggs are just set but still slightly moist on top.
  8. Remove the omelette and keep warm, then repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture to make three more omelettes.
  9. Top one half of each omelette with a handful of rocket and a quarter of the crispy bacon and sweetcorn.
  10. Scatter over a little grated cheese (Cheddar or Parmesan) and fold the omelette in half to serve.

Note

Use Cheddar or Parmesan cheese depending on your preference for a sharper or nuttier flavor.

You can substitute rocket with spinach if you prefer a milder green leaf.

Ensure the pan is not too hot when cooking the eggs to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.

Serve immediately while the bacon is still crispy and the eggs are warm.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, though the texture of the omelette may soften.
