Ingredients

50 g (2oz) butter
225 g (8oz) large mushrooms, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, sliced
50 g (2oz) sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
4 large eggs, beaten
Freshly ground black pepper
100 g (31⁄2oz) feta cheese, crumbled

Directions

1. Step 1
  Melt the butter in an 18cm (7in) diameter non-stick omelette pan and fry the mushrooms with the garlic until they're a deep golden brown and beginning to go crisp around the edges. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and stir over the heat for 1-2min. Meanwhile, preheat the grill.
2. Step 2
  Roughly spread the mushroom mixture over the base of the pan. Beat 30ml (2tbsp) cold water into the eggs and season with pepper (both feta cheese and sun-dried tomatoes can be salty so no extra salt should be needed to season the omelette). Pour over the mushrooms, gently swirling the pan to spread the eggs. Leave to set undisturbed on a low heat for 1-2min, then sprinkle over the feta. Place the pan under the hot grill for about 1-2min or until the eggs are lightly cooked and the feta cheese just beginning to melt.
3. Step 3
  Sprinkle the omelette with black pepper and a few sprigs of fresh thyme, if you like, then cut into wedges and serve immediately.
