Instructions

Beat eggs in a bowl and add carrots, green onions and salt.

Place a large non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat, add oil, then pour in the egg mixture. Spread egg mixture evenly over the pan by tilting the pan. Cook eggs over medium heat until the edges are cooked and the middle of the omelette is semi-set. This should take 2-3 minutes.

Fold one edge of the omelette over and roll so that you end up with a long rectangular omelette roll in the pan. Cook both sides of the omelette roll over low heat until firm, but do not brown.

Remove omelette roll from the pan and let it cool on a plate or a chopping board. Slice cooled omelette into 2 cm-3 cm slices and serve.
