Method
Preparation
Cook the Potatoes and Onion
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced potatoes and onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the potatoes are tender and golden, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Cooking the Tortilla
Combine Eggs
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together and season with salt and pepper.
Mix and Cook
Once the potatoes and onions are cooked, drain excess oil and add them to the bowl with the eggs. Mix gently to combine. Wipe the skillet clean and add a little more oil. Pour the mixture back into the skillet and cook over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, until the bottom is set and lightly browned.
Serve
Once cooked through, slide the tortilla onto a serving plate. Cut into wedges and serve warm with romesco sauce, chili aioli, and house pickles.
