Spanish Omelette, which is different from known potato omelets with its denser potato filling, is a very popular place in world cuisines as a different version of the French Omelette. Of course, potatoes play the leading role again. Enjoy your meal!
Peel and wash the potatoes. Slice into half moon shapes or cubes. They should be large enough to be fried in a little oil.
Peel the onions and chop them thinly or into cubes. Heat the oil in a deep pan (not too wide) and fry the potatoes, turning them upside down, until they become soft.
Add the onions and fry together until they turn pink.
On the other hand, beat the eggs for 1-2 minutes until they are homogeneous. Add the fried onions and potatoes to the eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
At this stage, you can add a small amount of finely chopped spring onion, parsley, basil and fresh herbs to the omelette. However, the classic Spanish omelette is made with only potatoes, onions and eggs.
Heat the remaining oil in the same pan. You can separate the excess part if you wish. Put the omelette mixture you prepared into the pan, lower the heat and close the lid.
Check from the edge and when the bottom is browned, turn it upside down using a flat lid or plate. Close the lid and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Egg whites should not remain watery.
Slice this plump and delicious omelette and serve it warm. If you wish, you can decorate your omelette with finely chopped spring onion stems. Enjoy your meal!
