Bauernomelett or farmer's omelet is a simple German dish that's usually served for breakfast, but sometimes also for lunch or dinner. It's made with a combination of bacon, onions, potatoes, parsley, eggs, and milk. The bacon, onions, and potatoes are sautéed slowly, and when the potatoes start to turn golden brown, a mixture of eggs and milk is poured into the pan.

Cooked over high heat, the omelet can be turned over and browned on top, or it can be folded in half before serving. It's recommended to serve this hearty omelet with pickles on the side. If desired, the dish can be enriched with grated Emmentaler cheese while the omelet is cooking.
