Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until they are translucent and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
2
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender and lightly browned.
3
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt. Add the cooked potatoes and onions to the bowl and stir to combine.
4
Pour the egg mixture back into the skillet and cook over medium heat until the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.
5
Use the spatula to carefully flip the omelette over and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the other side is lightly browned.
