Equipment

  • 1 Chopping board for chopping up potatoes and spring onions
  • 1 knife
  • 1 mixing bowl medium to large
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 frying pan (oven safe)

Ingredients
  

  • 5 cooked baby potatoes cubed (approximately 400 g)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 spring onions finely chopped
  • 7 medium eggs
  • 100 g cream cheese or 3 heaped tablespoons
  • 1 hot smoked salmon fillet skin removed
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

Crisp up the potatoes

  • In a frying pan, saute leftover cooked potatoes (that you have cut up in cubes) in a little olive oil over medium heat. They will catch the pan and get nice crispy edges.

Make the omelette

  • While the potatoes are crisping up, crack the eggs In a medium to large bowl.
  • Whisk the eggs lightly just until blended, add the cream cheese, chopped spring onions and season well with salt and pepper. You can add chopped herbs if you want at this step.

Cook the omelette

  • Add the eggs blend over the potatoes in the same frying pan and flake chunks of the hot smoked salmon to distribute uniformly on the top of the omelette.
  • Cook the omelette on a gentle heat until nearly set. This should take around 5 minutes. Then transfer under a hot grill (broiler) until golden brown and fully set, this also take just under 5 minutes, so watch it closely.

Serve and Enjoy!

  • Let the omelette cool for only a few minutes, then serve a generous slice. Enjoy!

Notes

Cook the omelette over gentle heat, otherwise it could easily burn.
Don't leave it while it cooks, you want to watch it closely so you can take it from under the grill as soon as nicely browned.
Take care when you take the pan from under the grill, the handle will be hot, use some oven safe gloves!
