A folded omelette with a soft green pepper and onion filling, spiced with cumin or caraway, finished with melted mozzarella and cheddar and fresh spring onions.

- Heat the butter in the pan over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and cook, pulling the set edges towards the centre, until the top is just set.
- Spoon the filling over one half, scatter over half the cheese, and fold the other half over.
