I was in Std XI and was just discovering the art of cooking. I had started to try my hand at a few dishes at home when I came across the recipe for Potato Omelette in Times of India which was a part of the NIE programme at school. The recipe seemed easy to make and sounded absolutely YUM! I decided to make it and wasn’t disappointed at all.
Heat 4 tsp of oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add the chopped onions and cook till translucent.
Then add the sliced potatoes and cover and cook till almost done.
When the potatoes are almost done, add the sliced green capsicum. Add salt to taste. Cook until the rawness of the capsicum is gone (capsicum should have a little crunch and should not be totally soft). Once the potato and capsicum are cooked, add pepper to taste and stir. Spread the potatoes and capsicum evenly in the frying pan.
Then pour the beaten eggs (add salt to eggs while beating) over the potato and capsicum mixture to cover them completely. Cover and cook on sim till the eggs are almost set.
Finally add the grated cheese and cover and cook till done. (The cheese would have melted and the eggs would be set.) Cut the omelette across to make triangles. Serve hot.
