🌿 Ingredients for Two Servings:
- Medium Potatoes: 2 (peeled & sliced—not too thin) 🥔
- Eggs: 5 🥚
- Onion: 1 (diced) 🧅
- Olive Oil: Slightly more than usual—enough to cover most of your potatoes 🫒
- Salt & Black Pepper: To taste 🧂🫒
- For an extra touch of luxury: Add minced meat & cheese slices—making it rich & flavorful ✋
🍳 Cooking Steps:
- Frying Potatoes & Onions:
• Pour an adequate amount of olive oil into a non-stick pan & heat on medium-low.
• Without overheating the oil, add potato slices & diced onions; sprinkle with some salt & fry gently on low until they absorb that lovely olive oil aroma. Cover with a lid & let simmer for about 5 minutes until soft. Remove from pan & drain excess oil (which can be reused later). - Mixing Eggs:
• While frying your potatoes & onions, crack eggs into a bowl; add some salt & black pepper—mix well. Add slightly more salt as potatoes lack inherent flavor. Five eggs might seem excessive but remember—you’ll have leftovers!
• Drain fried potatoes/onions of any excess oil; once slightly cooled mix them into your egg mixture (too hot will cook your eggs prematurely). - Frying Your Omelette:
• Leave just enough residual oil in your pan before pouring in half your mixture.
• For our deluxe version—spread meat sauce (I used my best batch from my fridge), cheese slices along with mozzarella evenly between layers.
• Pour remaining mixture over ensuring everything’s covered nicely.
• Cover lid again—fry gently over low heat around 5-6 minutes.
• Using plate flip omelette carefully back onto other side adding more oil if necessary till fully cooked through another approx 3-4 minutes—take care not burn yourself! - Enjoying Your Dish:
• Sprinkle chopped parsley atop before slicing up ready-to-eat!
