Whenever my youngest son drops in his appetite, I know that's the cue of his incoming partial bowel obstruction. (If you know my story, Jansen had gone through major surgeries which involved moving his intestines, kidney and stomach back to place, so there were scar tissues inside after the surgeries.) However, usually, in my heart, I will always put on hope to look forward to a miracle and it did happen the day. This morning, I still try to cook something he likes, hoping for that miracle that he could eat.
Potato Omelette
I used to make scrambled eggs or cheese omelette for Jansen until I read up potatoes can be a good source of vegetables for Jansen instead of leafy vegetables which will make bowel obstruction even worse. Then, my brain automatically combined both eggs and potato — I came up with the idea of making potato omelette which later I found out it was already a famous recipe in YouTube. Lol.
Here's my take.
I used three eggs and one potato because I love the egg-y taste. And only seasoned with salt and pepper.
Firstly, peeled off the potato skin and cleaned it well. Then, the potato would be grated.
It was recommended for Jansen to eat softer food, therfore I cooked the potato first in a pan.
The three eggs were beaten and seasoned with salt and pepper before the cooked shredded potato was added into the egg.
Heated up the pan with some unsalted butter or oil, then the eggs potato mixture would be added in. Bring the heat to low heat to prevent overburning the eggs. Be patient to wait till the bottom layer of eggs were cooked. And also less watery eggs on top.
Usually, when the top layer of eggs was almost 50% cooked, I would be ready to flip the eggs the other side.
Continue to cook the other side of eggs till fully cooked. And scooped out into a plate, cut them into triangles for easy eating.
Such a simple meal to make and the bonus point is, eggs and potatoes are usual ingredients found in many kitchen. Not to mention salt and pepper which usually are in every kitchen. A very healthy breakfast and snack for kids too, fully loaded with good protein and good carbs.
If you have never tried this before, give it a go. I am sure you will like it. 😊
