Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium-sized potatoes (peeled and grated)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (your choice, but cheddar is a classic!)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the grated potatoes and spread them evenly to form a potato layer. Cook until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes, then carefully flip to cook the other side.

Step 2: Mix the Egg Mixture

While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together the eggs, cheese, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined.

Step 3: Combine Potatoes and Eggs

Once the potatoes are crispy and golden on both sides, pour the egg mixture over the top of the potatoes. Let it cook for 5-7 minutes or until the eggs are set.

Step 4: Garnish the Omelette

If desired, garnish with chopped chives for an extra pop of flavor.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Slide the omelette onto a plate, slice it up, and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious creation as it quickly disappears!
