Ham Omelet (Tortilla de jamon)

Assemble these supplies:

• 1/2 cup ham, cubed 
• 3 tablespoons olive oil 
• 4 large eggs, beaten 
• salt, pinch 

Steps in preparation:

1. Fry the ham in the oil. Add the beaten eggs to which a little salt has been added, for the ham may be quite salty.
2. Shake the pan occasionally to keep the omelet from sticking. Continue to cook over low heat for several minutes until it is firm on the bottom. Cover the pan with a plate to turn the omelet; brown the other side and serve hot.
3. The omelet may be folded over, which is a French- style omelet, or served flat, Spanish-style.
