Ingredients:

• 3 spring onions, finely chopped
• 7 ounces of new potatoes (about 200 grams), thickly sliced
• 4 rashers smoked bacon.
• 2 Tablespoons of sunflower oil , plus 1 teaspoon
• 8 eggs
• 1 teaspoon of English mustard (ready-made rather than powder)
• 3 ounces of mature cheddar (about 85 grams), grated
• 2 tomatoes

Preparation:

• Boil sliced potatoes in pan of lightly salted water about 10 min, until just tender. Drain.
• Meanwhile snip bacon into pieces with scissors. Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in frying, then add bacon and stir-fry until it turns pink. Add spring onions, stir briefly for a couple of seconds to slightly soften, then tip bacon and onion into a bowl. Wash and dry frying pan.
• In another bowl, whisk eggs with mustard and salt and pepper to taste.
• Add half of cheese to egg mixture with cooked bacon, onions and potatoes. Gently stir to mix everything.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. of oil in frying pan, Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour in mixture, then stir a couple of times as it sets on the base of pan to start it cooking.
• Turn on the grill so it has time to heat up. Leave omelette to cook, undisturbed, over a low heat about 6 min.
• Meanwhile, cut tomatoes into wedges, scatter over omelette and sprinkle with cheese.
• When omelette seems set on the base, but is still a little eggy on top, put frying pan under the grill to cook the last of egg mixture and melt cheese. Cool about 5 min, then turn out of pan. Cut into wedges and serve.
• TRY: To give this omelette a more elegant twist, omit the bacon and tomatoes, and stir 3 slices smoked salmon, cut into thin slices, and 1 tbsp chopped dill in with the eggs in step 4. Continue to cook as before and serve cut into wedges.
