How about:

I like to eat omelette as my breakfast.

No. In this case, you would say "I like to eat omelettes for breakfast" or "I like to eat an omelette as my breakfast."

omelette is countable or uncountable noun?

You could consider it a countable noun. In this case you can use an indefinite article with it, which is typical of countable nouns. EX: I want an omelette. EX 2: I've got some omelettes. (You can use words like some, any, few, and many with countable nouns).

Hope this helps!
