How to Make Greek Omelet

  1. Peel and dice 1 medium potato into 1/2-inch cubes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
  3. Add 1/2 small onion, finely chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, to the skillet. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, until the onion softens and potatoes are tender.
  5. Stir in 1 cup of fresh spinach and 1 tablespoon capers (or 1/4 cup chopped Kalamata olives). Cook until spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.
  7. In a separate well-seasoned cast-iron skillet (or non-stick skillet), heat 1 teaspoon olive oil over medium heat.
  8. Whisk 3 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl.
  9. Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet and let it cook for about 30 seconds until the edges start to set.
  10. Gently tilt the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  11. Sprinkle 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese over the egg mixture.
  12. Arrange the cooked potato and spinach mixture evenly over the cheese.
  13. Place the skillet under a preheated broiler (medium-high) for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the eggs are set.
  14. Remove from broiler and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (optional).
  15. Carefully fold the omelet in half using a spatula.
  16. Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.
