1

Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly, about 1/8 inch thick. Dice the onion into small pieces.

2

In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the sliced potatoes and onions, seasoning with a pinch of salt.

3

Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender but not browned.

4

In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them lightly. Add the cooked potatoes and onions to the bowl, ensuring they are evenly mixed with the eggs.

5

In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed, and pour the mixture into the skillet over medium heat.

6

Cook the omelette for about 5-7 minutes, until the edges start to set. Use a spatula to check the bottom; it should be lightly golden.

7

Place a large plate over the skillet and carefully flip the omelette onto the plate, then slide it back into the skillet to cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes until golden and cooked through.

8

Once cooked, slide the omelette onto a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
