If you're in a hurry, skip the omelets and just do a big ol' pan of scrambled eggs with cheese and serve the spanish sauce over the top!

Add the seasonings & stir fry for another 3 minutes.

To prepare omeletes - Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Crack 3 eggs in a bowl and scramble with a fork. Pour the scrambled eggs into the skillet. Using a spatula, as the eggs firm up, lift the edges and let the runny egg pour into the bottom of the pan. When you've done this all the way around & most of the runny egg is gone, gently flip over. Remove skillet from heat, add cheese to 1/2 of the omelette. Fold over in half and slide onto a plate.

Spanish Omelette Spanish Omelette
I learned this recipe from my mother-in-law.It's perfect for something to eat with drinks, to pack in your lunch, or have for dinner.It's important to take time when cooking each side. If you cook it over high heat, it'll burn the surface and leave the inside uncooked, making it hard to flip over. Recipe by Monkichip

Spanish Omelet with Potatoes Spanish Omelet with Potatoes
I wanted to make an easy dish with the potatoes I had on hand, so I searched for a recipe and came up with this.It tastes great if you use a small skillet or a small pan, so that the shape will hold together and the egg will be nice and thick.Slice it into wedges like a piece of cake for an even more enjoyable experience.Feel free to try other condiments besides ketchup.

Spanish Omelet Recipe I Learned From a Spaniard Spanish Omelet Recipe I Learned From a Spaniard
A Spanish friend of mine taught us how to make it at a party. It became my signature recipe since then!Since it takes about 15 minutes to make, I recommend making it in between doing dishes or making other dishes.Cook it slowly over low heat without burning it! Adjust the amount of the eggs, or other ingredients to the size of the skillet.It's also great with green peppers, carrot, sausages etc...When you flip the skillet, the egg may drip out of it. I recommend doing it over the sink. Recipe by Riezou -
2-Egg Fluffy Spanish Omelet 2-Egg Fluffy Spanish Omelet
I want to eat a Spanish Omelet!But I only had a couple eggs in the fridge.I used dashi-flavored eggs as inspiration when dealing with this conflict.Slicing the potato into strips adds more volume to the dish!When you're cooking it, slowly steam cook it over low heat. When it's time to flip the omelet, shake it out of the frying pan onto a plate, and then flip the plated omelet back onto the pan. I think this will keep the omelet looking nice.I used a 22 cm frying pan for this example. For 1 small frying pan. Recipe by emyo -

Easy in the Microwave Spanish Omelette Easy in the Microwave Spanish Omelette
Spanish omelettes are usually large frying pan size, but I wanted to make a small one easily without any oil, so I came up with this.Use a bowl that is around the same size as that listed. If the ingredients overflow in Step 2, just remove them. Adjust the cooking time to suit your microwave. This contains simple ingredients, so season it well with salt and pepper You can use satoimo (taro) instead of potato. It's tasty. Recipe by Momokito -

Tortilla De Patatas (Spanish Omelette) Tortilla De Patatas (Spanish Omelette)
This is one of the most classic (and easiest) Spanish recipes. Every family does it in its own way, so this is my mom's style (the best, of course!). It makes a smart use of onion to sweeten it without feeling its crunchiness, plus some other tricks to make it look great.Note: as this is a big omelette, it usually cooks faster and easier on gas stoves. If you're using an electric or induction stove it might require around 30 minutes of extra heating for steps 9 to 14.
