To make and serve your omelette
� When the butter has melted and is bubbling, add your eggs and move the pan around to spread them out evenly
� When the omelette begins to cook and firm up, but still has a little raw egg on top, sprinkle over the Cheddar, if using (I sometimes grate mine directly on to the omelette)
� Ease around the edge of the omelette with a spatula, then fold it in half
To make and serve your omelette
� When it starts to turn golden brown underneath, remove the pan from the heat and slide the omelette on to a plate
