- 2 eggs (if u have kampung eggs, use 3-4 as they are usually much smaller)
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 large ripe tomato, chopped
- 1 medium potato, chopped into thin bits
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
Heat butter in a pan, add potato bits, cook through (this may take several minutes). Push them to side of the pan, add chopped onion, saute then add tomato. Mix in the potato, spread them pan-wide. (If your pan is too large, you can do this in a wok)
Break the eggs in a little bowl, beat slightly to mix the yolk & white part of the eggs and pour onto the cooked vege mix in the pan. Reduce heat and cover the pan to allow the eggs to cook through, you may turn the omellette over to cook the other side as well, if you prefer not to wait too long. Cut into wedges and serve. (You can serve the leftovers to the hubz or eat it yourself, but be forewarned, there ain't any salt in the recipe, so do sprinkle some if you want to have it for yourself)
I fed this to Nia for lunch, she devoured one wedgie and came back for more!
* I do not add any salt or sugar in anything I make for Nia at home. According to childcare professionals children below the age of 12 months should not be fed any salt at all as their kidneys aren't able to process execessive salt unlike adults'.
What do kidneys do?"After your body has taken what it needs from the food, waste is sent to the blood. If your kidneys did not remove these wastes, the wastes would build up in the blood and damage your body. Your kidneys measure out chemicals like sodium, phosphorus, and potassium and release them back to the blood to return to the body. In this way, your kidneys regulate the body’s level of these substances. The right balance is necessary for life, but excess levels can be harmful." National Kidney & Urologic Disease Information Clearing House
