How to Make Omelette Souffle

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Separate the eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another. Add water, salt, and pepper to the yolks and whisk until light and pale.
  3. In a separate, clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture to lighten it. Then, gently fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  5. Melt the butter in an oven-safe 8-inch skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture.
  6. If using fillings, gently sprinkle them over the egg mixture.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the soufflé is puffed and golden brown.
  8. Garnish with fresh chives (if using) and serve immediately.
