I was feeling rather hungry one Saturday morning in the days before I starting watching my carbohydrate and calorie intake. The fridge was fairly empty as we hadn't done the weekly shopping. So I came up with a filling variation of a gallette de pommel de terre.

| It's Nothing Like a Gallette de Pomme de Terre |
Ingredients
A couple of large potatoes
Half a red onion
A chunk of cheddar cheese
A large knob of butter
An egg
A wholewheat tortilla
Method
Peel and thinly slice the potatoes.
Melt the butter in a wide, flat-bottomed pan until it starts to foam.
Carefully place the potatoes in the pan overlapping the slices lightly. Try to keep to a single layer, two at most.
Cook the potato slowly so it softens and cakes before it browns. Then carefully turn it over to brown the other side.

Before the bottom of the potatoes starts to brown, grate the cheese over them. Once the bottom is browned and the cheese has melted, sprinkle a little sliced onion over the gallette. Let the onion cook for a short while until it has lost its rawness but is still crunchy.

Finally, serve on a warmed tortilla and to with a lightly fried or poached egg.
