"His method, which he shared on TikTok, is simple: Just whisk an egg with a spoonful of mayonnaise in a measuring jug till they blend into a creamy mixture, and then stick the same jug in a microwave. It's that simple! The omelet should be ready after a minute in the microwave, though in some cases it can also be done in a matter of 30 seconds, depending on the power of your appliance."
"Cooking an omelet in a microwave can be controversial, especially since it is prone to overcooking and becoming rubbery in there. However, Andrés' trick of incorporating mayo helps prevent this by adding fat to the eggs and stabilizing them, which gives the resulting omelet an airier texture even if cooked for a few seconds too long. The result is a hassle-free, one-bowl meal within minutes."
Whisk an egg with a spoonful of mayonnaise in a measuring jug or any microwave-safe mug until smooth, then microwave the mixture for about 30–60 seconds until slightly gooey, fluffy, and with soft edges. Mayonnaise adds fat and stabilizes the eggs, helping prevent rubberiness and creating a lighter texture even if slightly overcooked. Cooking time depends on microwave power, so start with short bursts and adjust. Use a container with enough empty room for the omelet to expand. The method delivers a fast, one-bowl breakfast with minimal cleanup and easy variations.
