Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 medium Potatoes
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (chopped, optional) Parsley
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and dice them into small 1/2-inch cubes.
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil, add the diced potatoes, and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until just tender. Drain and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the cooked potatoes and sauté for 3-4 minutes or until they are golden and slightly crispy.
Transfer the potatoes to a plate and clean the skillet with a paper towel.
Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet and heat over medium-low heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, allowing it to spread evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Evenly sprinkle the sautéed potatoes and shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half to cover the filling. Press gently to ensure the cheese melts.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes over low heat, or until the omelette is fully set and the cheese is melted.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with chopped parsley (if desired), and serve immediately.
