Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and add a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper.

Beat the eggs with chopsticks or a whisk until just blended.

Add 1 teaspoon of water to the egg mixture.

Heat a non-stick pan over high heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, tilting the pan to coat the bottom and edges.

Once the butter is foaming but not browned, pour in the egg mixture and let it sit for a few seconds.

Swirl the pan to keep the eggs moving and form the omelette.

When the eggs are set, flip the omelette onto a plate by inverting the pan.

Garnish with parsley and optionally chives or scallions.
