Tortilla Española Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes and Onion

   Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds. Chop the onion into small pieces.

2. 2

   Cook the Potatoes and Onion

   In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the potatoes and onions, season with salt, and cook gently until the potatoes are tender and slightly golden, about 15-20 minutes.

3. 3

   Whisk the Eggs

   In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and black pepper.

4. 4

   Combine and Cook

   Once the potatoes and onions are cooked, drain excess oil and add them to the bowl with the eggs. Mix well. In the same frying pan, add a little more olive oil and pour in the egg mixture. Cook on low heat for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is set.

5. 5

   Flip the Tortilla

   To flip the tortilla, place a large plate over the pan, invert the pan, and slide the tortilla back into the pan. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the second side is golden and set.

6. 6

   Serve

   Slide the tortilla onto a serving plate and let it cool slightly before cutting into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
