Steps:
-
Peel the potatoes and wash them thoroughly. Rinse it from water, dry it and pass it through the fine side of the grater. Place it in a deep mixing bowl. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt and let it rest for 5-6 minutes.
-
On the other side, break the eggs into a separate bowl. Add flour, salt and baking powder (or baking soda). Beat well until it foams and reaches a smooth consistency.
-
Sort, wash and dry the spring onions. Separate the green stem parts and chop them thinly.
-
Take the grated potatoes in the palm of your hands and squeeze the juice thoroughly. Add potatoes, chopped onions and spices to the egg mixture and mix.
-
Grease a shallow pan with oil and put it on the fire. When the pan is heated, transfer 1-1.5 ladles of omelette mixture to the pan and flatten it with the back of the ladle. It should not be thicker than 1.5 cm. Put it on low heat and close the lid.
-
When the bottom part is cooked (5-6 minutes), check whether it is sticking to the edges and turn it over. Close the lid again and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
-
While the omelette is in the pan, sprinkle grated cheddar on half of it and fold it. Spread butter on it and place it on a serving plate. Repeat this process until all the mixture is finished.
-
Serve your omelettes hot, without waiting too long. Fill your plate with tomatoes, peppers and parsley, dill, etc. You can enrich it with fresh greens. Enjoy your meal!
