Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Peel the potatoes

    Peel the 400 g of potatoes, rinse them, then cut them into 1 cm dice.

  2. Slice the onions

    Peel the 2 onions and cut them into thin slices.

  3. Cook the potatoes

    Melt the butter in the skillet over medium heat, add the potatoes, salt and pepper. Cover and cook 12 to 15 min, stirring now and then, until they're tender when you poke them with a knife tip.

    Tip · Stir often and keep the lid on the skillet: the steam cooks the diced potatoes all the way through without burning them.
  4. Add the onions

    Add the onions to the skillet 5 min before the potatoes are done. Add a small splash of water if things stick. Stir so they turn translucent and soft.

  5. Beat the eggs

    While that cooks, crack the 6 eggs into the bowl, add salt and pepper, then beat them with a fork. Crumble half of the goat cheese into the eggs.

  6. Pour in the eggs

    Spread the potatoes and onions out in the skillet, turn the heat down to low, then pour in the beaten eggs. Dot the rest of the cheese over the top.

  7. Cook the omelet covered

    Cover and cook 6 to 8 min over low heat, until the center is set and doesn't jiggle when you shake the skillet.

    Tip · Stay on low heat. If the bottom browns too fast before the center sets, lift the edges with the spatula and let the raw egg run underneath.
  8. Flip and serve

    Slide the omelet onto the plate, flip it back into the skillet and cook 1 to 2 more min. Serve it hot, cut in half.

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!
