Method

1. Separate the whole egg, placing the yolk in one bowl and the white in another with the extra egg whites.
2. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until very stiff peaks form.
3. Lightly beat the yolk and gently fold it into the whites using a spatula to keep the volume.
4. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and pour in the egg mixture.
5. Cover with a lid and cook for 4-5 minutes until the bottom is golden and the top is set.
6. Spread the cottage cheese over one half, sprinkle with black pepper, and fold the omelette.
7. Serve immediately with a slice of toasted wholegrain bread.

Tips

• For maximum fluffiness, make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whisking.
• The cottage cheese adds a fresh, creamy contrast to the warm eggs; don't cook it, just let it warm through inside the fold.
