Heat the olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat, pour in the egg mixture and tilt the pan to spread it evenly.

💡 Tip: Drain the curd cheese in cheesecloth for 5 minutes so it does not water down the omelet. Chop the herbs finely before adding them to the eggs, since large pieces make folding harder.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice the hot omelet onto a plate and complete the Aegean breakfast plate with tomato slices, white cheese and warm village bread.
