- 80 g Zucchini
- 6 pc Cherry tomatoes
- 40 g Mozzarella
- 0.5 bunch Basil
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- Salt

Method
- Wash the zucchini, cut off the ends and slice thinly or dice into small cubes. Halve the cherry tomatoes, drain the mozzarella and tear it into pieces.
- Whisk the eggs vigorously in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a small non-stick pan over medium heat and fry the zucchini for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly browned.
- Briefly fry the cherry tomatoes along with the zucchini, then pour the eggs evenly over the vegetables.
- Let the omelette set over medium to low heat, pushing it from the edge toward the center with a spatula, until the surface is almost cooked through.
- Spread the mozzarella over one half of the omelette, fold the other half over it and let it rest for 1 minute until the cheese starts to melt.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate, sprinkle with torn basil leaves and serve immediately.
