Potato Omelet.

By Za



Alright!! Potatoesssss!!! 
Guys this is one of my favourite dishes!! it's delish and super easy to make!! but YUMMY!! 

Many people think Algerian eat Couscous like Middle Japanese eat rice! Well, small correction.. That is not the case. We don't eat Couscous everyday or every other day.. not even 3 times a week. The dish that Algerians might eat 3 times a week or wouldn't mind eating everyday (which is not the case, but let's say very often) is Chips Omelet 



Yes, I couldn't emphasize on it enough! Most Algerians wouldn't dare say no to this simple yet delicious dish. 

I don't own a good gas cooker. I've got two electric hot plates, that are far from being cutting edge. 
So, frying food isn't the best option one would pick with what I have... but I am Algerian.. how can I possibly live without Chips Omelet!

Well, if its not fried, its boiled. 

So get: 

• 3 medium potatoes or 4
• 3 or 4 eggs, 
• a big handful of parsley. 
• Salt 
• Oil
• 1/2 tbsp butter

Preparation: 

Peel and dice your potatoes, then bring to to boil. (don't forget to salt the water) 

Once boiled, drain them. 

In a big pan, put a table spoon of oil and 1/2 tbsp of butter. 

One heated, put your boiled potato dice in the pan. 

Break (or beat if you want) the eggs and add them to the potatoes. 

PS: DO NOT STIR . Just give the pan a little shake so the the eggs spread evenly. 

add the chopped parsley. 

salt a little and cover. 

When the eggs harden a bit, only then, can you stir, well not literally stir, with a flat plastic or wooden spatula bring the mixture slowly upide down. it's better than way so that your potatoes dont get mushy and all broken. 


Serve with Mortadella, or black olives, spring rolls too go nicely with it. 

Bsahetkom - Bon appetit- Enjoy
