Puffy Omelet For Two

4 eggs, separated
1/4 cup water
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 tbsp. butter or margarine
2 or 3 servings
In small mixer bowl, beat egg whites with water and salt until stiff but not dry.
In another bowl, beat egg yolks with pepper until thick and lemon colored.
Fold in egg whites.
Heat oven to 325F.
Heat butter in 10" skillet with oven proof handle until just hot enough to sizzle a drop of water.
Pour omelet mixture into skillet; level surface gently.
Reduce heat.
Cook slowly until puffy and lightly browned on bottom, about 5 minutes. (Lift omelet at edge to judge color.)
Place in oven; bake 12 to 15 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
To serve, tip skillet; loosen omelet by slipping pancake turner or spatula under and fold omelet in half without breaking.
