Peel the 300 g of potatoes and cut them into thin 3 mm slices. Peel the onion and slice it thin.
Tip · Cut the potatoes into even slices so they all cook at the same time, and don't rinse them so you keep the starch that holds the omelet together.
Slice the chorizo
Cut the 100 g of chorizo into thin rounds, then cut each round in half.
Cook the potatoes
Heat the olive oil in the skillet over medium heat, add the potatoes and onion with the salt. Cover and cook 12 minutes, stirring now and then, until they're tender.
Add the chorizo
Add the chorizo to the skillet and stir. Let it cook 2 minutes over medium heat so it releases its fat, then take it off the heat.
Beat the eggs
Crack the 6 eggs into the mixing bowl, add the pepper and beat them with a fork. Tip the contents of the skillet into the eggs and stir gently.
Cook the first side
Put the skillet back over low heat and pour in the whole mixture. Let it cook 6 minutes without stirring, until the bottom is golden and the edges are set.
Flip the omelet
Put the flat plate over the skillet, flip in one confident move, then slide the omelet back into the skillet on its other side. Cook 4 more minutes so the eggs are fully set.
Tip · Do the flip over the sink, quick and steady, and make sure the plate covers the whole skillet.
Rest and serve
Slide the omelet onto the serving plate and let it rest 2 minutes. Cut it into wedges.
And there you go, it's readyCheck off every step to celebrate.

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!
