- Add 3 tablespoons of the beaten egg whites to the egg yolk-Gruyère AOP mixture.
- Carefully combine the two with the help of a silicone spatula, tipping the bowl on its side and folding them together.
- Pour this mixture onto the remaining egg whites and fold together until well combined.

- Once the frying pan is nice and hot, pour in the egg mixture and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Then place the frying pan in the oven to finish cooking for a further 10 minutes, checking that it’s fully cooked after this time and if necessary, leaving it a few minutes more.
- Remove the baking hoop by sliding a knife between the omelette and the hoop.
