Thinking of having omelette for lunch, I'm undecided on how many eggs to use. I used to use 3, but recently have been having 2, but I'm quite hungry today but 3 feels a bit greedy 🤔

YABU - Use one, dont be a pig.

YANBU - Have allll the eggs, and chuck some cheese in to too.

Please tell me more about this omelette maker. I just use a pan but they always stick so I end up with just a mess of egg and fillings not so much the actual omelette...

I have this exact one.

Game changer. They really puff up!

I thought it would be something that just sat in my kitchen but I honestly use it all the time

DH also does fried eggs in it, it’s really quick

An omelette has to have three eggs. A bit of cheese is nice, but a plain perfectly cooked omelette is a beautiful thing. Don't add milk, always cook it in butter, and turn it out of the pan just before it looks cooked.

An omelette is 3 for me + some cheese.

It's an egg, you're not laying under a chocolate fountain with your mouth open.
