An omelette is a staple dish, equally suited to a quick supper as it is to brunch, and this collection provides you with options for them all. Take a look at our how to make omelettes guide for more advice on perfecting your dish - needless to say you’ll need to break a few eggs!

Nathan Outlaw’s bacon and pea omelette recipe makes the perfect breakfast for two, but for something a little more substantial a Spanish omelette or Italian frittata is a great option. When packed with potatoes and other sturdy fillings a frittata can be a meal in itself, perfect for pairing with salad as a light lunch or serving up in chunks on a picnic.

Ring the changes from traditional lunch box fare and try the child-friendly Spanish omelette recipe by the Galvin brothers, or for a dish packed with fresh, seasonal flavours Bruno Loubet’s asparagus, cheese and mint frittata is hard to beat.
