Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 small red onion
- 1 cup shredded leftover roasted lamb
- 1 handful cherry tomatoes
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- 4 large or 5 small eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 Tbsp fresh mint leaves, chopped

- 50g Feta, crumbled
Instructions
- Finely slice the onion, halve the cherry tomatoes.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick frying pan and gently sauté the onion.

- Beat the eggs with 4 pinches of salt in a bowl.
- Add some more oil to the pan and heat. When hot, pour in the egg and let it spread out evenly.
- When the omelette’s set, add the lamb mixture, spreading it out evenly.

- Cook under a lid for a few minutes then slide it to a plate. Garnish with a few mint leaves, cut in half and serve.
