Omelette—Another Way

Ingredients

• 6 eggs
• salt
• parsley
• 4 ounces fresh butter
• sweet herbs, onion, anchovy, rasped beef, ham, or tongue

Instructions

1. Break six eggs and leave out half the whites. Beat them with a fork and add salt and chopped parsley. Cut four ounces of fresh butter in half. Put half of it in small pieces into the egg mixture. Put the other half in a small frying pan and melt it over the heat.
2. Pour the egg mixture into the melted butter. Stir until it begins to set, then turn it up around the edges. When done, place a plate on top and turn the pan up so the omelette does not break. The omelette must be thick, and great care must be taken in frying.
3. If desired, you may substitute the parsley with any kind of sweet herb, chopped onion, minced anchovy, rasped beef, ham, or tongue.
