French omelet recipe

This is a cloudy day today in Lausanne. I am not really feeling like going out or do anything else. I wanted to walk. I don’t do sport, that never was my thing apart from walking maybe. I am not hiking in the Swiss mountains or in the forest next door, if it is that what you think. No, I go out from my apartment and walk anywhere I have to go if that less than 30 minutes from my place. If I have the choice between taking public transportation or walk there by myself I will most probably choose the second option unless it is raining like hell. I like to walk around in the busy city center of Lausanne. While walking, my brain is computer free and I have a tone of ideas coming up. So today, yes I stayed home and made a French omelet, I would like to share with you guys. My grandma from my mother side used to make one for lunch when she had not enough time to cook something else. I usually use left over to garnish my omelet. If you have done a raclette, you still have boiled potatoes left and that’s the best in an omelet.

If I eat the all dish by myself, I am not hungry anymore. But in case you want to share it with one friend, keep the same quantity and serve with a green salad.
