it looks great and tastes wonderfull. So
simple, like all the very best things in life. A few eggs, a bit of
chopped onion, some potato, salt and a good olive oil - all you need to
make this iconic dish.

long as you have a good - non-stick pan it's easy after the first try

tomato sauce and a loaf of our crusty
bread.
