Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Wash the mushrooms

    Give the mushrooms a quick rinse under cold water to get the dirt off, then pat them dry with a clean dish towel or paper towels.

  2. Slice the mushrooms

    Cut the mushrooms into thin slices on the cutting board with the knife.

  3. Prep the salad

    Wash the green salad under cold water, gently dry it and tear it into pieces in the mixing bowl.

  4. Sauté the mushrooms

    Pour the olive oil into the nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the sliced mushrooms and cook them 4 to 5 minutes, stirring now and then.

  5. Beat the eggs

    In the bowl, beat the 4 eggs with a fork, add a pinch of salt and mix well until smooth.

  6. Cook the omelet

    Pour the beaten eggs over the mushrooms in the skillet, spread them out and let it cook over low heat 2 to 3 minutes without touching. Sprinkle half of the shredded Swiss cheese over one half of the omelet, then fold it in half.

    Tip · For a soft omelet, don't flip it: just fold it in half while it's still a little soft inside.
    Tip · If the mushrooms release too much water, take them out of the skillet and cook them in the dry skillet for a few minutes before putting them back, so the omelet doesn't get too wet.

  7. Dress the salad

    Pour the balsamic vinegar into the mixing bowl and gently toss the salad to coat it.

  8. Serve the omelet

    Take the omelet out of the skillet and set it on a plate. Sprinkle with the rest of the shredded Swiss cheese.

Pantry salt, oil and spices aren't counted. Your store and your brands will move the total, but the ballpark is right.

How long does it keep?

Eat it fresh. An omelet is best soft, fresh out of the pan: reheated, it turns rubbery. Make it the day you eat it, it's done in 5 minutes!
