Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, salt and black pepper, then whisk until smooth.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and melt the butter.
Pour in the egg mixture and let it set for 20–30 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently pull the cooked edges towards the centre so uncooked egg can flow underneath.
When the omelette is mostly set but still slightly soft on top, scatter over the ham, cheddar, tomato and most of the parsley.
Fold one side over the filling and cook for 30–60 seconds until the cheese starts to melt.
Slide onto a warm plate, sprinkle with the remaining parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
Whisk the eggs thoroughly so the omelette cooks evenly and stays tender.
Cook over medium heat to avoid browning before the centre is set.
Serve with a green salad, toast or sautéed potatoes for a fuller meal.
