Potato And Cheese Omelette

Total Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 1
• 1 medium cooked potato, cut into large cubes (can be leftover boiled, baked or nuked)
• 1/2 cup of grated cheese (i like a combo of cheddar/gouda/edam, but you can use just one kind)
• 2 -3 eggs (depending on how hungry you are)
• 1 tablespoon butter (or 1 tblsp olive oil)

Recipe

• 1 melt the butter in a frying pan.
• 2 when hot, add potato and cook until golden-brown and crusty on all sides.
• 3 beat up eggs in a small bowl with very little salt (the cheese has plenty) and freshly ground pepper.
• 4 lower heat of stove, add eggs to pan and give them a good stir, a couple of times, bringing up cooked eggs from bottom, but redistributing uncooked eggs and potatoes.
• 5 sprinkle generously with shredded cheese.
• 6 let cook until golden-brown on bottom.
• 7 run spatula down center, and carefully fold one half over the other creating a half-moon (sometimes you don't get a perfect half-moon, but it still tastes good anyway!).
• 8 turn off heat and let omelette sit in pan for 30 seconds to a minute (depending on how well you want your eggs done) and then carefully turn over and allow 30 more seconds.
• 9 allow to cool about 4-5 minutes before tucking in (this seems to allow the flavours to blend better).
