Sweet potato & spinach Omlette

I had some sweet potato and spinach left over from the previous recipe, so to use them up I made this
Ingredients

  • 1 onion
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 2 med sweet potatoes
  • handful of spinach
  • 4 eggs
  • olive oil, salt & pepper
Method
  1. Peel, wash and then cut the sweet potato into small dice
  2. Heat olive oil (enough to just cover the base of a good non-stick frying pan), then add the sweet potato  and season well with salt & pepper. Cover the frying pan with a lid.
  3. Peel and cut the onion into small dice and add to the potato, mix well and cover again
  4. Crush the garlic and add to the pan
  5. Break the eggs into a mixing bowl and beat well with a fork
  6. Remove the large stalks and cut the spinach leaves into small pieces and add to the eggs stir well
  7. when the potato and onion mix are soft add to the egg mixture in the bowl and mix well
  8. Add a little oil to the frying pan and heat well.
  9. Add all the mixture to the pan and lower the heat to 1/2 on the ring. leave until the base is set and golden brown
  10. Put a large dinner plate over the top of the pan and flip the pan over so that the omlette is now on the plate, add a little oil to the pan and heat it again. then slide the omlette back onto the pan with the uncooked side touching the pan. leave until set and golden brown. ( If flipping the pan is too difficult at the start you could place the frying pan under the grill to set the top of it ) 
Let me know how you get on making it and if you have any questions....
