This recipe challenges the claim that a microwave omelette made with egg and mayonnaise in 40 seconds can be the 'best omelette in the world'. Perfect for a quick meal when a stove isn't available.
1. Lightly grease a small microwave-safe ramekin or bowl with oil or butter.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, grated parm, salt, and pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
3. Pour the mixture into the greased ramekin.
4. Microwave on high for about 40 seconds. Microwaves vary, so keep an eye on it the first time.
5. Let it rest a minute, then run a knife around the edge and flip out onto a plate.
6. Decide for yourself if it lives up to the claim.
*Pro tip — start at 30 seconds and add in 5-10 second bursts if it needs more time. Every microwave cooks differently.*
