Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegan butter and swirl it around the surface of the pan, allowing it to melt and get slightly foamy before adding the Just Egg.
Pour the Just Egg into the pan. Swirl it or shake the pan gently back and forth to create a thin even layer in the pan. Allow this to cook until it is just bubbling and the edges look cooked. The key thing for a french omelette is to not have any browning on the outside surface of the egg!
Add the Boursin cheese to one side of the omelette, just off center. I used a zipper bag like a piping back to squeeze it out in one thick line of cheese just like Syd did in the episode. But you could also dollop the cheese with a spoon in a line too. Once the cheese is placed immediately fold the edge closest to the cheese over the cheese and fold it once more. It might be a little tricky but then you gently roll the omelette onto your plate with the end seam down. Perfectly sealing the cheese mound in the omelette.
Take the 1 teaspoon of cold vegan butter and use your fingers to coat it all over the surface of the omelette until it's melted. Top with chives and crush the chips on top. Add fresh ground black pepper to taste to finish. Definitely eat this immediately!
