Ingredients
- 5–6 medium potatoes
- 8 large eggs
- 100 ml milk
- 3 fresh spring onions
- 1 red bell pepper (Florina pepper if available)
- 1 green bell pepper
- 10 cherry tomatoes
- 150 g gouda cheese
- 150 g feta cheese
- Olive oil
- Dried oregano
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method
- Prepare the potatoes
Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Place them in a baking dish (about 34×24 cm), drizzle generously with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Roast them in the oven until they soften slightly. - Chop the vegetables
While the potatoes are baking, finely chop the spring onions and bell peppers. Set aside. - Make the egg mixture
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together with the milk. Season with a little salt, pepper, and oregano. Crumble in the feta cheese and add most of the gouda (reserve some for topping). Mix well. - Combine and assemble
Remove the baking dish with the roasted potatoes from the oven. Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and spread evenly with a spoon. Scatter the chopped vegetables on top, add the whole cherry tomatoes, and finish with the remaining gouda cheese. - Bake to perfection
Place the dish back in the oven and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 35–40 minutes, until the omelette is puffed up, set, and golden on top.
