Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Peel half a potato per person
Continue to peel lengths until you have a 8 thin slices of potato per person
Pat the potato slices dry with kitchen paper
Cut the remaining potato[es] (skins on) into fries
Add the fries to a baking paper-lined baking tray (or two!) with half your dried oregano (you'll use the rest later!), a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray[s] in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp
While the fries are cooking, line a plate with cling film and drizzle a little olive oil all over, then top with the potato slices
Pop your plate in the microwave and cook for 1-3 min or until the potatoes are slightly browned
Tip: Don't touch them, they may be hot!
Season with a small pinch of your smoked sea salt flakes (save the rest for later!) and set aside to crisp up – these are your smoked salt crisps
Boil a little water in a kettle
Chop your cherry tomatoes in half
Chop your chives finely
Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic
Wash your salad, then pat dry with kitchen paper
Combine the chopped garlic (not a big garlic fan? Try using less!) with your soft cheese, the remaining dried oregano, a small splash of boiled water and a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your herby soft cheese
Whisk together 80ml [120ml] [160ml] milk with your eggs, a generous pinch of pepper and the remaining smoked sea salt flakes – this is your omelette mix
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil and a knob of butter over a medium-high heat
Once the butter is melted, add enough omelette mix for 1 person
Cook for 15-20 secs or until the egg is very slightly set, then, using a spatula, gently push the mix towards the centre
Swirl the pan so the unset mix fills to the edges, repeat until all the mix is set - this is your omelette
Once set, spoon the herby soft cheese (save some if cooking for 2 or more!) down the centre of the omelette and fold the edges of the omelette into the middle
Cook for a further 1-2 min or until done to your liking – this is your herby cheese stuffed omelette
Transfer the herby cheese stuffed omelette to a plate and cover with a clean tea towel to keep warm
Repeat this process for each person with the remaining omelette mix and remaining herby soft cheese
Serve the herby cheese stuffed omelette, then crumble over the smoked salt crisps and top with the chopped chives
Serve the fries to the side with the salad and chopped tomatoes and drizzle over a little olive oil and your balsamic vinegar
Enjoy!
