I know I had shared this one but it must have been on one of the old forums.
Omelette
Just the omelette, not the filling, and just the main thing almost every recipe I've read gets wrong. Do not cook an omelette over medium-high heat. Pour the beaten, seasoned eggs into a heated, oiled pan over low heat. Then put a lid on the pan and cook for five minutes or so. The main purpose of the lid is to make sure you leave it alone. It also traps moisture inside, cooking the top also, but that's less important than leaving the omelette the fuck alone. At this point you can add your filling and fold over the omelette.
I could never make a good omelette until I read this in an Indian recipe book, of all places.
