Once the potatoes are soft, add them to the pan with the onions and mix well.

Let the potato and onion mixture cool for about 5-10 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together 6 eggs and season with salt.

Pour the egg mixture over the potato and onion mixture in the pan, spreading it out evenly.

Cover the pan with a lid and cook on low heat for about 5-7 minutes until the edges are set.

Carefully flip the omelette using a plate and cook the other side for about 5 minutes until golden and firm.

Serve the omelette warm or cold, optionally with fresh bread.
