Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet and add diced onions. Cook over medium heat until onions are beginning to brown. Add chopped pastrami and continue to cook just until the pastrami is thoroughly heated. Remove from heat.

While onions cook, beat eggs and cream in a small bowl until well blended. Heat some water.

In a medium skillet, melt remaining butter over medium heat. While whisking, add heated water to the egg mixture, and keep whisking. This helps set the eggs and makes a fluffier omelette.

Add egg mixture to the medium skillet and swirl the pan to get the eggs evenly distributed. Use a spatula to pull the cooked eggs in from the outside of the pan toward the middle. Swirl the pan again, or use the spatula to distribute uncooked runny egg mixture to the outside of the pan. When you can no longer swirl any egg mixture to the outside of the pan, lightly salt the eggs, reduce heat to low, and cover. The top of the omelette will steam under the lid. This only takes a few minutes.

When the top is well set (there may be a few runny streaks, but that's okay), remove the lid. Spread the warm pastrami and onion mixture, along with any remaining butter from the small skillet, over half of the omelette. Sprinkle cheese on top of the pastrami. Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over to cover the pastrami and cheese. Turn off heat.

Wait a minute or two for the cheese to melt. Cut omelette in half and transfer to serving plates. Top each serving with spicy brown mustard and a light sprinkle of caraway seeds.
