La tortilla francesa u omelet (francés: omelette) es un plato elaborado con huevo batido y cocinado con mantequilla o aceite (depende de la zona), en una sartén. La forma que adquiere durante el cocinado es similar al de una hoja redonda, extendida o plegada sobre sí misma. La versatilidad de este plato es tan grande que existen innumerables variaciones.

In cuisine, an omelette or omelet is a dish made from beaten eggs quickly fried with butter or oil in a frying pan (without stirring as in scrambled egg). It is quite common for the omelette to be folded around a filling such as cheese, chives, vegetables, meat (often ham or bacon), or some combination of the above. To obtain a fluffy texture, whole eggs or sometimes only egg whites are beaten with a small amount of milk or cream, or even water, the idea being to have "bubbles" of water vapour trapped within the rapidly cooked egg.
