Tortilla Española Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare Potatoes and Onion

   Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly. Chop the onion into small pieces.

2. 2

   Cook the Potatoes and Onion

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced potatoes and chopped onion. Sprinkle with salt and cook until the potatoes are tender and slightly golden, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

3. 3

   Whisk the Eggs

   In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Once the potatoes and onion are cooked, drain excess oil and add them to the bowl with the whisked eggs. Stir gently to combine.

5. 5

   Cook the Tortilla

   Wipe the skillet clean and add a little olive oil. Pour the potato-egg mixture into the skillet and cook on medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the underside is set and lightly browned.

6. 6

   Flip the Tortilla

   Place a large plate over the skillet and carefully invert the tortilla onto the plate. Add a bit more oil to the skillet and slide the tortilla back into the skillet to cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes.

7. 7

   Serve

   Once both sides are golden brown and the center is set, remove from heat. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
