Bombay potato omelette Kobra Alizadeh

Ingredients

  1 tbsp vegetable oil

  ½ onion 

, sliced

  1 medium cooked potato 

(leftover boiled or roasted potatoes are fine), cubed

  1 tsp medium curry powder

  1 tsp nigella seeds

  2 large eggs 

, whisked

  1 tbsp natural yoghurt or raita

  good squeeze chilli sauce (optional)

Instructions

  

  Heat most of the oil in a pan. 

 Fry the onion for 10 mins until starting to caramelise, then add the potato and fry for a further 8 mins until the edges are beginning to crisp. Add the curry powder, most of the nigella seeds, some seasoning and a splash of water. Cook for 1-2 mins, then scoop the mixture onto a plate. Wipe out the pan with kitchen paper.

  Increase the heat and add the remaining oil to the pan. Add the eggs and some seasoning, then use a spatula to stir a few times. Leave to cook for 30 seconds. Pile the potato filling onto one side of the omelette while the top is still a little soft. Fold the omelette over to cover the filling and cook for a final 1-2 mins, if you like your omelette set all the way through. To serve, top with a drizzle of yoghurt or raita and some chilli sauce if you like.
