Preparation

  1. STEP 1 OF 6

    Break the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, salt, and beat vigorously with a whisk until you obtain a homogeneous and airy mixture.

  2. STEP 2 OF 6

    Cut the Fontina Valdostana DOP into small cubes to facilitate melting. Wash and cut the cherry tomatoes in half.

  3. STEP 3 OF 6

    Heat the butter in a cast iron (or non-stick) pan over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and remove it as soon as it turns golden. Pour in the eggs and cook without stirring for about 1 minute.

  4. STEP 4 OF 6

    When the edges start to set, distribute the Fontina Valdostana DOP on one side of the omelette, sprinkle with some of the chopped aromatic herbs and a dash of pepper.

  5. STEP 5 OF 6

    Fold the omelette in half, cover with a lid and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the center is gooey and the shell is slightly golden.

  6. STEP 6 OF 6

    Serve immediately, garnishing with the remaining cherry tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, and a sprinkle of aromatic herbs. Add another pinch of black pepper to taste.
