Special way to make a Greek omelet?

[d_kakavouli]

I love omelets. I know that they serve them in Greece sometimes. What is considered to be a traditional Greek omelet exactly? I had one in Greece when I visited people, and it seemed like they had a mixture of things in it, some of which I believe was foraged.

I personally love greens, cheese (like feta), and olives in mine. Is this considered traditional?

I would love to hear how you love your omelets!

I really just use what I have. If you are new to making omelets, I suggest you learn how to make a great omelet without "stuff" in it so that you can get the technique down, and then you can start adding ingredients. Each ingredient you add causes the omelet to behave differently and it takes some time to get the feel. That being said, I love feta, tomatoes, and olives in my omelets!

This is basically what I do, as well. I learned how to make a regular omelet (just with eggs) so I could get the technique. Then I branched out and would add cheese. Now I experiment and use what I have. I love feta, olives, and tomatoes in mine!
