Cook Eggs: - In the same skillet, melt another 15 g (1 tablespoon) of butter over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook until the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle 100 g of grated cheddar cheese and the sautéed vegetables over half of the omelette. Fold the other half over the filling and cook until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully set, about 2 more minutes.
