I love Spanish omelets (Tortilla de patatas) but frying is so annoying, plus the kitchen gets messy and cleaning up is so much work. So I came up with this slightly low-calorie and more convenient method.

The cooking time will vary depending on your microwave, so adjust accordingly. For my microwave, 8 minutes was fine. When flipping over the omelet, place the one-sided browned omelet on a flat plate larger than the omelet itself, and then flip it so that the uncooked side can brown in the frying pan. If you use this method, I don't think you can mess up. Recipe by Spain

Steps

1

Peel the potatoes and the carrot. Roughly chop up the potatoes, julienne the carrot, and thinly slice the onion and peppers. Place into a heat-resistant dish. Pour olive oil over the top. (See the photo.) Cover with a lid and microwave at 900 W for 8 minutes and then let it sit in the microwave to soften.
2

Add salt to a beaten egg and then pour into Step 1. Use a fork to mash up the potatoes as you stir.
3

Heat a frying pan well before adding just a little bit of olive oil (not listed in ingredients.) Pour in Step 2 and cook until both sides have browned (on medium-low heat). This photo shows the omelet after it has been cooked.

It is refreshing and delicious if you enjoy it together with some Spanish piriñaca. It really turns into a summer Spanish omelet if you eat it this way.

The omelet will soak up the moisture from the piriñaca, making it even more delicious.
