Cook the Potatoes and Onion
In a large non-stick frying pan, heat 1/2 cup of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced potatoes and onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook gently for about 15-20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender but not browned. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Flip the Tortilla
To flip the tortilla, use a large plate. Invert the tortilla onto the plate, then slide it back into the pan to cook the other side for another 5 minutes, or until fully set and golden brown.
