- Pinch of salt
- Black pepper

- Fresh parsley or dill (optional)
Instructions
Step 1 – Prepare the Batter
Whisk together:
- Eggs

Pour in the batter and spread it evenly into a thin circle.
Cook for about 3–4 minutes until golden, then carefully flip and cook for another 2–3 minutes.
Step 3 – Add the Filling
Arrange the turkey slices on one half of the omelet.
If you’re in the Cruise Phase or beyond, add thin cucumber slices and fresh herbs.
