Tortilla Española Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

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

2. 2

   Cook the Potatoes and Onions

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced potatoes and onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and lightly golden (about 15-20 minutes).

3. 3

   Beat the Eggs

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

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Once the potatoes and onions are cooked, drain them from the oil and add them to the bowl with the beaten eggs. Mix gently to combine.

5. 5

   Cook the Tortilla

   Wipe the skillet clean and add a little olive oil. Pour the potato, onion, and egg mixture into the skillet and cook on medium-low heat for about 5-7 minutes, until the bottom is set and golden.

6. 6

   Flip the Tortilla

   Place a large plate over the skillet and carefully flip the tortilla onto the plate. Slide it back into the skillet to cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes.

7. 7

   Serve

   Once both sides are golden and the center is cooked, slide the tortilla onto a cutting board. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
