Steps:

• Firstly, fry up your bacon until it's crispy, in a frying pan set on medium heat.

• Pour into the pan. Top with the smoked Gouda and bacon.
• Cook until the bottom of the omlette (the part in contact with the pan) has become a light shade of brown, then attempt to flip one side of the omlette over, folding it in half.
• Continue frying until the eggs are cooked through and the cheese is nice and melted.
• Put it on a plate, and enjoy.
