Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 red onion, peeled & sliced
  • 12 oz (340g) potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 6 eggs
  • 0.15 oz (4g) fresh parsley, chopped (reserve a few leaves for garnish)
  • 2.8 oz (80g) mozzarella, shredded
  • ¼ tsp chili flakes
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until soft. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, add thinly sliced potatoes. Cook about 3 minutes per side until golden brown and tender. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Stir in cooked onion, chopped parsley (reserving some for garnish), garlic powder, chili flakes, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes in the skillet. Cover and cook on low for 3 minutes or until the eggs are mostly set.
  5. Carefully flip the omelet using a spatula or by inverting onto a plate and sliding it back into the pan.
  6. Sprinkle mozzarella on top, cover again, and cook for 2 minutes until the cheese melts.
  7. Fold in half, garnish with remaining parsley, and serve warm.
