D Sample answer To make a ham omelette, you need some eggs, a lot of ham, one small onion and a cup of grated cheese. First, chop up the onion. Next, heat some cooking oil in a frying pan and add the chopped onion. Chop the ham into small pieces and add it to the pan. Next crack some eggs into a bowl, add some milk and mix together. Then, add it to the ham and onions. Cook for five minutes. The last thing to do is add lots of cheese on top of the omelette, then put it under a grill for a few minutes.
