Ingredients

  • Eggs – 3 whole (or 2 whole + 2 egg whites for lower fat)

  • Egg whites – optional extra for more protein

  • Onion – 1 small, finely chopped

  • Tomato – 1 small, finely chopped

  • Spinach / Capsicum – 2 tbsp, chopped

  • Salt – to taste

  • Black pepper – ¼ tsp

  • Olive oil / Butter – 1 tsp

Execution

1. Prepare Egg Mixture

  • Beat eggs (and extra egg whites if using) → add vegetables, salt, and pepper → mix well.

2. Cook Omelette

  • Heat oil in a non-stick pan → pour mixture.

  • Cook on medium-low flame till the bottom sets → gently flip or fold and cook 1–2 mins more.

3. Serve

  • Serve hot with whole-grain toast or as a side with salad.

Additional tips

  • Add spinach or paneer cubes to increase protein content further.

  • Use medium-low flame to keep the omelette fluffy and avoid burning.

  • You can fold in some cooked chicken or tofu for an extra high-protein version
