Omelette Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Home Fries

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the diced potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Omelette Mixture

    Chop the onion and tomato into small pieces. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the chopped onions and tomatoes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Omelette

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to set. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top and fold the omelette in half. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelette is fully cooked.

  4. 4

    Toast the Bread

    While the omelette is cooking, toast the slice of bread to your desired crispness.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tomato onion omelette hot with the crispy home fries and toasted bread on the side.
