Ingredients
  

For the Omelette
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 medium potatoes peeled and diced
  • 100 g lardons bacon
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper
  • Fresh parsley

Equipment

  • Skillet or frying pan
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula
  • Knife and Cutting Board
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Serving plate

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Cook the lardons in a skillet over medium heat until crispy and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  2. Step 2: In the same skillet, add the diced potatoes and cook until golden and tender, about 10-12 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, season with salt and pepper, and whisk until well combined.
  5. Step 5: Pour the beaten eggs over the potato and onion mixture in the skillet. Cook on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, lifting the edges to allow uncooked eggs to flow underneath.
  6. Step 6: When mostly set, sprinkle the crispy lardons over one half of the omelette.
  7. Step 7: Fold the omelette in half and cook for an additional minute. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
