How To Make potato-egg omelet
-
Step 1Wash and peel the potatoes and chop into 3/4 inch cubes.
-
Step 2Using a frying pan over medium-high heat, add potato pieces. Add salt to the potatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning often, until crispy outside and soft on the inside.
-
Step 3Remove and drain the potatoes on a paper towel. Saute the onion and green pepper until they are soft and the onions are translucent. Add the onions and peppers to the potatoes.
-
Step 4Beat the eggs and scramble them to your liking. Add the onion/potato mixture when they are almost done or you can serve the eggs separately with the potatoes on the side. Adjust seasoning. If you prefer, you can add a little sofrito on top of the eggs.
