2023. Iraqi Potato Omelette

This Iraqi potato omelette is as simple as it can get and an old family favorite. The hardest part is making sure the potatoes are fully cooked through before cracking in the eggs. This can be done in a multitude of ways: parboil the potato before finishing them off in the pan, or the old fashioned way which is to let them gook for a good 15 to 20 minutes before finishing off the dish in the same pan.



Ingredients:

1 medium potato
3 eggs
salt and pepper
olive oil

Method:

Medium dice the potato and either cook them partially in boiling water then sauteeing them in a pan with some oil, or directly cook then in a pan with some oil until cooked through and seared.

Once the potatoes are cooked through, lightly salt them. Crack the s=eggs in a bowl and season with salt and pepper as you lightly whisk them. Pour the eggs over the potatoes, lowering the heat to medium-low. As the edges will cook, the middle will remain jiggly, so turn the heat all the way down to low and cover the pan for 2-3 minutes to allow the center to set. Serve immediately.
