Step 1

Peel and chop the onion into very small cubes. Also cut the pancetta bacon into small pieces if it is not cut small enough already. Peel the potato and chop it into fine, small pieces (optional) and also grate the cheese.

Step 2

Place the pancetta bacon in a medium-sized frying pan and fry it on medium heat until the fatty parts become slightly translucent. Add the onions and fry until they are translucent and the bacon is slightly crispy. Add the potato pieces and fry them for 1-2 minutes as well.

Step 3

In a small bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them with a fork until uniform in color. Add salt and pepper to taste - but remember that the pancetta bacon can be quite salty already.

Step 4

Reduce the heat slightly and pour the egg mixture over the ingredients in the pan. Do not move the contents of the pan around! Fry the egg on low heat for about 4 minutes without moving it. Sprinkle the cheese on top, place a lid on top of the pan, and let the omelette sit for approx. 3 more minutes until the cheese has melted and the egg is fully cooked.

Step 5

Slide the omelet out of the pan onto a plate and flip half of the egg over onto its other half. Cut it in half and serve hot. Enjoy!
