Ingredients

250g boiled potatoes (traditionally left-over)
3 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp finely-chopped parsley
salt and freshly-ground black pepper
30g butter

Method:

If you have boiled potatoes especially for this recipe, allow to cool completely before proceeding. Cut the potatoes into small pieces and set aside.

Beat the eggs in a bowl, season with salt and black pepper then stir in the potato pieces.

Melt the butter in a frying pan and when hot, pour in the egg mixture. Cook over medium heat until the omelette is set and the bottom is golden brown. Scatter over half the chopped parsley then fold the omelette over and carefully slide onto a plate.

Garnish with the remaining parsley and serve.
