Instructions
1
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut into very thin slices so they cook more quickly. Peel and cut the onion into thin strips.
2
Heat a teaspoon of oil in a skillet. Add the potatoes and onion. Lightly fry over medium heat, stirring occasionally. This will take about 20 minutes, depending on how well you want the potato to be cooked.
3
Transfer the potatoes and onion to a dish and pour the oil into a small bowl.
4
Beat the eggs in a bowl. Then mix with the potatoes and onion and season with a pinch of salt.
5
Heat another skillet with a little of the saved oil. Use a spoon to pour the omelet mixture into the skillet. Use a wooden spoon to push the omelet away from the sides of the skillet so it will be easier to flip. After 2 minutes, flip the omelet. To do this, use a plate that is larger than the skillet. Hold the plate over the skillet and turn upside down quickly to ensure the omelet stays on the plate. Then quickly slide the omelet back into the skillet and cook on the other side for 1–2 more minutes. Repeat the process to turn the omelet out of the skillet. Enjoy!
Tips & Tricks
If you don’t like onion, you can make the omelet without it.
If you like your omelet a little runny on the inside, the cooking time will be shorter. Cook it a little longer if you prefer it firmer.
