Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the eggs, salt, optional milk or water (if using), and whisk with a fork.
Transfer the whisked egg mixture over the diced ham or your omelet fillings into your omelet maker or bowl. Seal and place in the microwave.
Cook on high power for 2 minutes (the eggs should be partially set). Flip your omelet maker and continue heating in 30-second intervals until the egg is completely set.
Open the omelet pan and gently transfer to a plate. Add the shredded cheddar cheese over your omelet and serve warm.
Notes
For the best results when cooking eggs, allow your eggs to warm to room temperature prior to cooking them.
Some omelet makers suggest using non-stick cooking spray. Mine doesn't have an issue with sticking so I opt to skip this, or use some melted butter because I like the flavor better.
To make your omelet without a microwave omelet pan, simply combine and cook in a shallow bowl. Alternatively, you can use a rimmed plate (coated with butter or non-stick cooking spray) to cook your omelette so that it can still be filled and folded.
When microwaving your omelet on a plate, cook for 1 minute on high power. Use a spatula to lift the cooked edges and allow the uncooked egg to fill in the to the edges of your plate. Microwave in 30-second intervals until cooked fully. Add fillings and fold your omelet.
