- 2 medium potatoes about 10-11 oz
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion peeled and chopped
- 3 eggs beaten
- salt and pepper
Peel the potatoes and slice thinly with a mandolin.
Mix the sliced potatoes with most of the oil, turning to coat.
Add to a pan over medium-low heat and cover with a lid. Cook for about 12 minutes, turning several times, until tender but not colored.
Turn the potatoes out of the pan and add the onion. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Add to the potatoes with the beaten egg, mix and season generously.
Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick pan over low heat. Add the mixture and pat into a round. Cook for about 6 minutes until set at the edges and colored on the underside.
Carefully flip and cook for a further 4-5 minutes on the reverse side.
Turn out of the pan, slice, and serve hot or cold.
