# Method — step by step

1. 1Whisk the eggs until uniform. Stir in the chopped chives and season with black pepper. No salt step is specified but adjust to taste.
2. 2Heat a small omelette pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. When the pan is hot, pour in the egg mixture and swirl so the base is evenly coated.

1. 1When the bottom begins to set, sprinkle over the goat's cheese. Leave until the omelette is almost entirely set, then fold it over in the pan and slide onto a plate.
2. 2Serve with a cherry tomato salad, as the original post recommends.

• Use a small omelette pan so the eggs reach an even thickness quickly.

• Add goat's cheese once the bottom is set but the top remains slightly wet, so the cheese softens without fully melting and the omelette stays tender.

# Substitutions and variation ideas mentioned on the blog

• Feta is named as the first choice alternative to goat's cheese.
