The correct amount of eggs for an omelette is two, we all agree right? Surely one egg is un oeuf?

Two as a side, three if a main. This. Chumbles method: Buy a decent omellette pan; a La Creusot cast iron non-stick is best. Stir the eggs in a bowl, season (mixture should be near room temperature). Fold a kitchen towel in 4; put over a light olive oil and upend the bottle - wait ten seconds; turn bottle right way up. Wipe the towel over the cooking surface ... put pan on highest heat. When you can smell a singed smell pour the whisked eggs carefully into the pan. With a flat wooden spatula move any excess off the side of the pan. Don't disturb the mass on the flat bit. After about 30-45 seconds remove from heat, move an edge slightly with the spatula to see if the bottom of the proto-omelette is sealing ... a little shake horizontally ... if it moves freely and there are no charred bits on the underside... back on heat... another 10-20 seconds and provided the top is 80-90% set (baveuse) then fold in the edges and slide onto a warm plate. Give to first punter and start on the next. If someone is pregnant, after you've cooked til it's 95% set blast in microwave for 15 secs so you're sure the interior is set. Any fillings cook and leave in a warm place; I normally add at the folding stage. All veg give off water and mushrooms especially can ruin an omelette if introduced earlier as bits will set and bits won't. The plate will be swimming with liquid and it will look more like scrambled egg... you can only make matters worse if you try and remedy the situation by cooking the liquid our DON'T let any fuckwit say they will wait for everyone else before eating... a tepid omelette is fuck all use to man or beast. Best with chunks of bread and butter and a chilled rosé.

Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn is available on Amazon Prime until 8th February ... Peter Bradshaw gave it 2&, but the AP guys are ca. 4.5*. I saw the first 10 mins, but I'm dog-tired so off to sleep. The cast is stellar, both Jackson and Spielberg are producers so I will watch it later this week.
