Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Peel the sweet potato

    Peel the 600 g of sweet potato and cut it into cubes, about 3 cm, so it cooks evenly.

  2. Start cooking

    Put the cubes in the saucepan, cover with cold water, add the pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Then turn it down to medium and let it simmer.

  3. Cook the sweet potato

    Let it simmer until a knife tip slides in with no resistance. Meanwhile, move on to the mushrooms.

  4. Prep the mushrooms

    Wipe the 200 g of mushrooms with a damp towel or paper towel, then slice them.

  5. Sauté the mushrooms

    Heat the olive oil over high heat in the skillet, add the mushrooms and brown them 6 to 7 min, stirring now and then. Add pepper, then set them aside on a plate.

    Tip · Don't stir the mushrooms for the first 2 minutes and don't salt them, or they release their water and boil instead of browning.
  6. Mash it up

    Drain the sweet potato and put it back in the saucepan with 15 g of butter (half) and the crème fraîche. Mash with a fork or potato masher, add pepper, then cover to keep warm.

  7. Beat the eggs

    Crack the 6 eggs into the mixing bowl, add a pinch of pepper and beat with a fork until smooth.

  8. Cook the omelet

    Melt the remaining 15 g of butter in the skillet over medium heat, pour in the eggs and stir for 30 seconds. Let it set 2 min, add the mushrooms on one half, fold the omelet over and cook 1 more min: it should be fully set.

    Tip · Don't wait for the top to be dry before folding the omelet, or it gets rubbery. It finishes cooking from the leftover heat.
  9. Plate and serve

    Cut the omelet in half and put each piece on a plate with the mashed sweet potato.

Pantry salt, oil and spices aren't counted. Your store and your brands will move the total, but the ballpark is right.

How long does it keep?

Eat it fresh. An omelet is best soft, fresh out of the pan: reheated, it turns rubbery. Make it the day you eat it, it's done in 5 minutes!
