You are correct - no change is indeed necessary in this sentence, because the pronoun their is the correct pronoun which you should use in the example above.
You cannot use his, because there are more than one brother involved. You cannot use her, because the omelette belongs to both the mother and the brothers. And the third option is also incorrect because of his in the singular form.
