Easy Spanish Omelette

Ingredients:

• 350g new potatoes
• 1 large red onion
• 75g chorizo sausage
• 6 large British Lion eggs
• 1 tbs vegetable oil
• fresh chives(optional)

Method:

Start by cooking the new potatoes - place in slightly salted water, bring to the boil and cook for 10-15 minutes until tender.

Prepare the rest of the ingredients: peel and slice the onion, slice the potatoes, slicethe chorizo sausage if needed (I used read cut chorizo chunks), break the eggs into a bowl and beat.

Heat the oil in a frying pan then fry the onions for 2 minutes until beginning to soften. Add the potato slices and chorizo and continue to fry for 3 more minutes.

Preheat your grill to a medium/hot setting, then pour the beaten egg over the mixture in the frying pan and leave to cook for 6 minutes without stirring. Pop the omelette under the grill and cook for a further 2 minutes or until the omelette is cooked through.

Whilst the omelette is finishing off cooking, finely chop a few chive stalks for garnishing if wanted.

Tip out of the pan onto a plate, sprinkle with the chopped chivesand cut into wedges to serve. We had ours with a leafy salad, cherry tomatoes and cucumber, yum!

Cool any leftovers quickly and store in the fridge, this omelette is delicious hot or cold so perfect for lunch boxes.
