Main Ingredients- 1 large potato
- 140g Vienna sausages
- 1/2 onion
- 4-5 fresh eggs
- 4 Tbsp cooking oil
- Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1/2 bell pepper
Egg Seasoning- 1/2 tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 tsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 slice cheddar cheese
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 tsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 slice cheddar cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the ingredients. Peel the large potato and cut it into bite-sized pieces. You can either boil it gently in salted water until slightly tender or microwave it for 5-7 minutes after covering with plastic wrap for a quicker method. Finely chop the onion and bell pepper after washing and deseeding them. Slice the Vienna sausages diagonally. Having all ingredients prepped beforehand will make cooking much smoother.
Step 2
Now, let’s make the egg mixture that will create a fluffy omelet. In a wide bowl, crack 4-5 fresh eggs. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and a pinch of black pepper. Stir in 1 teaspoon of grated Parmesan cheese and tear or finely chop the slice of cheddar cheese into the bowl. Since the sausages and cheese are already salted, use only a small amount of salt in the egg mixture. Whisk everything gently until well combined to create a smooth egg batter.
Step 3
It’s time to start sautéing. Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent and fragrant. Then, add the sliced Vienna sausages and cook until lightly browned. Next, add the pre-cooked potatoes and stir-fry briefly to combine all the ingredients. Finally, add the chopped bell pepper and cook just until slightly softened. Transfer all the sautéed ingredients to a plate. Sautéing like this enhances the flavor and texture of the ingredients.
Step 4
Now, let’s shape the omelet beautifully. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel. Reduce the heat to low. Add another 2 tablespoons of cooking oil to the pan. Once the pan is warm, slowly pour the prepared egg mixture around the edges, letting it spread evenly. The cheese will melt and naturally mix with the eggs.
Step 5
As the egg mixture begins to set slightly at the bottom of the pan, artfully arrange the sautéed potato, sausage, and vegetable mixture over one half of the omelet. Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook on low heat for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the omelet to cook through completely. Just before turning off the heat, sprinkle a little more grated Parmesan cheese over the top for extra flavor, and add a tiny pinch of salt and pepper if needed.
Step 6
Voila! Your delicious potato and sausage omelet is ready. Enjoy it while it’s warm for a fantastic combination of fluffy eggs, bursty sausages, and tender potatoes. It’s also wonderful served over rice with a drizzle of ketchup for a hearty meal, or tucked inside bread for a satisfying sandwich. Enjoy this special dish for brunch or a fulfilling meal today!
