Ingredients

  • Filling:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup cubed cooked potato
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 cup cubed cooked ham
  • 3 tablespoons grated cheddar cheese
  • Omelet:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • salt, to taste
  • fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon butter

Directions

  1. Make the filling: in a small nonstick skillet over med-high heat, melt the butter; add in potatoes, green onions, and ham; stir/sauté about 10 minutes, until potatoes are browned.

  2. Make the omelet: in a bowl, whisk the eggs, water, salt, and pepper together.

  3. Heat an 8-inch omelet pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat.

  4. Add in butter; swirl to coat bottom of pan.

  5. When butter foams, pour in egg mixture all at once.

  6. Let set until edges begin to cook, about 20 seconds.

  7. Using a spatula, gently lift edges of mixture and tip skillet to let the uncooked egg mixture flow underneath; continue to do this until the top is almost dry, 3-4 minutes.

  8. Spoon ½ cup filling mixture over one half of the omelet; sprinkle with grated cheese.

  9. Fold the other side over to cover.

  10. Let stand for a few minutes; turn out onto a warmed plate; serve immediately.
