Binging with Babish has a great series on basic dishes

He covers the American omelette which is my go-to. Usually with spinach, red bell pepper, red onion and sometimes mushroom filling. Often with some old cheddar and they are monstrously simple to make mediocre and not too difficult to make very well.

I'm a big fan of Babish! I'd also recommend the Bon Appetit Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/BonAppetitDotCom and Chef John from Food Wishes https://www.youtube.com/user/foodwishes

food wishes is single handedly the most valuable cooking resource I have ever come across. cannot recommend enough.

I do love Chef John and Babish. I personally love America's Test Kitchen

It's Alive from Bon Appetit is a really good serie. And Brad Leone is amazing

I would die for Claire from the Bon Appetit test kitchen

Nice I’ll definitely take a look. Thanks.

Watch this, incredibly simple method that made me actually like omelettes. (I hated them growing up)

"Really good" is subjective. It's the very notion something is possible and that you can do it that I see as valuable. Practice makes perfect, nothing can be perfect the first time you learn it.

As a side-note: you should not use metal utensils with non-stick (teflon) pans.

You might be interested in this video then: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5__zptEU9vE

The guy in the video tried to replicate Pepin's omelette and documented his progress. Pepin even responded to the video.

To summarize for those who can't/don't want to watch both videos: Just because world renowned chef Jacques Pepin makes an omelet look easy, doesn't mean it is.

My experience was that it made me look at omelette cooking in a totally new light. My omelettes aren't perfect, but I actually like them now. And my wife (who loves them) approves of the new technique. (I use cast iron and don't get the exact results, but they are greatly improved)

This video with Gordon Ramsay is just as good. These two videos together will teach you basically everything you need to make scrambled eggs and omelettes.

Pepin himself starts out his video by saying that the omelet is the dish that he would judge a chef by, implying that it demonstrates all of the skills of the chef. I'm not sure how this is supposed to demonstrate that you can learn to cook in an hour.

I wouldn't say "learn to cook in an hour", but I would say it gives you the confidence that you /can/ cook, and even learn to make just one thing good enough for just you. (an actual achievable goal)
