1 Tablespoon vegetable or canola oil 1\/2 of one large onion – chopped 1\/4 cup chopped red pepper
\n3 large eggs<\/p>\n
1 Tablespoon milk
\n1 pinch salt
\ngrated Parmesan cheese – to garnish (Optional)<\/p>\n
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion red pepper and saute until softened – about 4 minutes stirring occasionally.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile in a medium bowl, beat the eggs, milk and salt together. Transfer the onions and red pepperto plate.<\/p>\n
Reusing the same frying pan, increase the heat to medium-high and carefully run a wadded paper towel around the inside to clean.<\/p>\n
Add the egg mixture. As the egg starts to set, lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula and gently tilt the pan so uncooked egg runs beneath.<\/p>\n

Turn off the heat and allow the omelet to cook an additional minute or two – flipping the entire omelet at least once. This will warm the filling ingredients and help make sure the egg on the inside gets completely set.<\/p>\n
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve<\/p>\n
