Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 links sausage
- 1 medium potato
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 0.5 medium onion
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions
Peel the potato and cut it into small, bite-sized cubes. Finely dice half the onion.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potato and onion, and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Remove the sausage from its casing and crumble it into the same skillet. Cook over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside with the potatoes and onion.
In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter. Pour in the egg mixture and let it cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Once the omelet base is partially cooked, sprinkle the cooked sausage, potato-onion mixture, and shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to let the cheese melt and ensure the omelet is fully cooked through.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
