I followed the recipe exactly and my omelet turned out perfectly. It was golden brown and fluffy, and the potatoes were cooked through. I served it with a side of salsa and it was delicious.

I'm not a big fan of omelets, but this one was actually pretty good. The potatoes added a nice texture and flavor.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I would add more seasoning next time.

I've made this potato omelet several times now and it always turns out great. It's a great way to use up leftover potatoes and it's also a very affordable meal.

This potato omelet was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and so delicious. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
