Spanish Potato Omelette with Onion and Peppers
This is my signature dish. I don't consider myself a great cook, but my tortillas always turn out delicious. They're a must-have at every family and friends gathering.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel and slice the onion into thin rounds.
- 2
Cut the onion into thin strips and chop the peppers into small pieces.
- 3
Heat plenty of oil in a pan. When it's hot, reduce to medium heat and add the potatoes and vegetables together.
- 4
While the mixture is frying, take a moment to enjoy an appetizer. Cooking should be fun!
- 5
Beat 7 eggs and set aside.
- 6
After stirring several times, when you can easily pierce the potatoes with a fork, the mixture is ready.
- 7
Drain well.
- 8
Add the mixture to the beaten eggs, mix everything together, and add salt. I always add the salt at this point and taste it.
- 9
Heat your tortilla (omelette) pan on the stove. If you have a dedicated pan for tortillas, use it. Add a little oil, and when it's hot, pour out any excess and add the mixture.
- 10
Flip the tortilla a few times, depending on how set you want it. In summer, I usually cook it a bit more. And that's it!

[Spanish Cuisine] Potato Omelette [Spanish Cuisine] Potato Omelette
This is a variation of a recipe that I learnt whilst I was living in Spain. Normally you would fry the potato, but I heat them in the microwave to reduce calories. I also changed the technique for mashing the potatoes. Even with all the adjustments, these omelettes will come out tasting very good.In Step 4, see how the mixture looks, then decide whether you need to use a 5th egg. If there is too much potato and not enough egg, then you will get a crumbly omelette, Or, if you add too much egg, the potato will float to the top. I recommend cooking these omelettes until they're half-cooked, i.e. not completely cooked through to the middle. Recipe by Bakaryau

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 -

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.

I grew up in Buenos Aires eating this Spanish omelet at lunchtime, especially in a sandwich with mayonnaise and lettuce. One can add scallions or sausage to it. I’ve seen it stuffed with ham and cheese too. But this simple version is the most traditional and way Penélope Cruz makes it in Almodóvar’s “Parallel Mothers”.#tortilla #patatas #potatoes #omelet #omelette #eggs #Spanish #Spain #lunch #supper #breakfast #dinner #easy #simple

Low fat Spanish omelette Low fat Spanish omelette
Well I have often found recipes of 'Spanish omelette' featuring ingredients such as peas. Sounded outrageous to me as I believed it should only be potato onion and egg but on this version I have added zucchini . I must admit it really looks the part despite not using tons of olive oil to cook the potato slowly. Still delicious.

This is a dish that I ate at a Spanish bar. With the sweetness of the zucchini and onion, it has a slightly different taste than potato omelettes.When cooking the omelette in Step 4, use a decent amount of oil and heat it as if you're frying the eggs for a fluffier result. Please refer to my "Potato Omelette []" for instructions on how to flip the omelette over with a plate. Recipe by Bakaryau -

I've adapted an omelette my mother used to make for me to suit modern tastes. My mother used to make a usuyaki tamago (very thin omelette) and wrap ground meat and onion in it.I recommend using lean ground meat. I usually use Australian lean ground beef.If you stock some extra sautéed ground meat and onion you can make this omelette any time, so I've given amounts for making 1 omelette and for stocking some. For 1 omelette - amounts for stocking extras listed in ( ). Recipe by Cha-miru -
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
