Heat the oil and butter in a medium, non-stick frying pan (22-24 cm).

Pat the potato slices dry with some kitchen paper or a clean tea town. Then add them, along with the onion, to the pan. Season with a little salt and black pepper.

Cover with a lid or tin foil and cook over a low-medium heat until the onions are turning golden and the potatoes are soft. This will take 20-25 minutes. Turn them over gently after 10 minutes.

Beat the eggs in a large bowl, and season with salt and pepper.

Tip the potatoes and onions into the bowl and stir gently to coat everything with the egg mixture.

Heat a little more oil in the frying pan. Add the egg, potato and onion mixture into the pan and place over a low heat. Cook for 10-12 minutes until the mixture has set.

 

Heat the grill to medium. Place the frying pan under the grill and cook for a further 4–5 minutes. Allow to cool for 2-3 minutes, and then loosen the edges with a spatula and slide onto a large plate or board.
