Cheese, potato and pea omelette

Posted By D On 12/01/2012 @ 07:42 pm In Cheese, Supper, Pea, Eggs, Vegetarian, Recipe, Potato, Organic Box | No Comments

Raw Potato

1 large or two medium potatoes
1 cup frozen peas
2 oz cubed cheddar
6 eggs
tbsp butter
pinch salt

Peel the potato and cut into 1cm cubes.  Boil in salted water until tender (different varieties take longer or shorter, so test after about 5 mins).  When nearly done, tip in the frozen peas for a minute, then drain the lot.

Break the eggs into a bowl and whisk in the salt.  Cube the cheddar.

When you are ready to cook, melt the butter in a frying pan then add the potatoes and peas.  Sprinkle over the cheese, then pour on the egg mix and tip to ensure good distribution.

Cook on a medium heat until you can see a thick layer of egg is cooked, (but you can smell no burning!).  Heat the grill, then put the frying pan under the grill for around 5 minutes until the omelette is golden on top.  Use a knife to ensure the centre has no runny egg - if so, place back under the grill for a minute or two (turn it down a bit to make sure it doesn’t burn), then recheck.

Serve with a leafy green or cucumber salad and a nice mustardy dressing.
