How To Make mushroom and gruyere souffle omelet

  • Step 1
    Place half the butter in a skillet and let it melt over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and season with salt. Cook until browned; add the lemon juice. Set aside.
  • Step 2
    Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Whip the egg yolks with the cream until mixed well. Fold the egg whites into the egg yolks.
  • Step 3
    Add the remaining butter to the skillet and pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan around, shaking until the bottom is setting but the top is still a little runny. Add the mushrooms and cheese.
  • Step 4
    With a spatula, begin rolling the egg away from you while tilting the pan. Roll twice, then set a plate on the edge of the skillet.
  • Step 5
    Roll the omelet onto the plate. Garnish with more cheese and parsley.
