  • Step 1/7

    Peel and wash the potatoes. Then, cut them in thin slices (like the thickness of a coin).

  • Step 2/7

    In abundant oil, let the potatoes cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes. Add a bit of salt. You want the oil to cover the potatoes. Every 5 minutes, stir the potatoes to make sure that all the slices are cooked.

  • Step 3/7

    After 20 minutes, the potatoes should look this way. I personally love when some potatoes are a bit toasted.

    This step is very important. Use a colander to remove the extra oil. You don’t want the omelette to be oily.

  • Step 6/7

    Last step! Set up the omelette. I usually do 1 minute and 10 seconds (1:10) for each side. I like the omelette to be a bit soupy, more “liquid”. If you like it to be more cooked, just let it cook for more time!
