Beat eggs in a large bowl with a fork. Salt to taste. Add potatoes and onion to beaten eggs, pressing them so that eggs cover them completely. Let sit for 2 minutes. 4. Heat 2 tbsps of the oil in large fry pan. Add potato-egg mixture, spreading quickly. Lower the heat to medium-high. Shake pan to prevent sticking. 5. When potatoes start to brown, put a plate on top skillet and flip to cook other side, adding another tbsp of oil. Brown on the other side. Can flip three or four times for better cooking.
