  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp (optional) Dried Thyme or Rosemary

Instructions

  6. 6Pour the egg mixture evenly over the potatoes and onions. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  7. 7Cover the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until the eggs are mostly set but slightly runny on top.
  8. 8Carefully flip the omelette in sections or finish under a broiler for 2 minutes if the pan is oven-safe.
  9. 9Slide onto a plate, slice in half, and serve hot.
