  • 1 Tsp. Salted Butter
  • 2x Eggs

  3. Pour the omelette mixture into the mug and place it back into the microwave, cook for 20 seconds.
  4. Open the microwave and stir the egg, repeat cooking for 20 seconds and stir again.
  5. Cook for a final 20 seconds until the egg mixture starts to set.
  6. Remove the mug from the microwave and let it stand for 1 minute.
