Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel the potatoes, wash them, and slice them thinly. Set aside in a bowl.
- 2
Peel the onion and slice it thinly (julienne style).
- 3
Pour 5 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil into a skillet. Place the skillet over heat and let it warm up. Add the sliced onion, sprinkle with a pinch of coarse sea salt, and stir occasionally until it starts to change color.
- 4
Add the thinly sliced potatoes and continue stirring occasionally.
- 5
While the potatoes are cooking, trim the tough ends off the wild asparagus and break them into pieces.
- 6
When the potatoes are almost tender, add the asparagus pieces. Stir often and cook for about 10 more minutes.
- 7
Transfer the potatoes and asparagus to a bowl. If there is excess oil, remove it. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork along with a pinch of coarse sea salt. Pour the beaten eggs over the cooked potatoes and asparagus. Mix well.
- 8
Heat a medium nonstick skillet and lightly grease it with a little oil. Pour in the potato and egg mixture and cook over medium heat on one side. Flip the tortilla onto a plate, then slide it back into the skillet to finish cooking. When the tortilla is golden on both sides, slide it onto a plate. Serve warm. Enjoy!

Eggplant, Potato, and Onion Tortilla Eggplant, Potato, and Onion Tortilla
In Catalonia, it's called Dijous Gras; in the Balearic Islands, Dijous Llarder; and elsewhere, Jueves Lardero. The word 'lardero' comes from the Latin 'lardarius,' meaning 'pork butcher.'This day is also known in many places as 'Tortilla Day.' It marks the start of Carnival festivities and signals that there's one week until Ash Wednesday, which begins Lent—meaning 40 days until Easter.What's the connection between this day and tortillas?There are many theories, but the most common is that, in the past, people made tortillas with flour and pork fat on this day and would go out to the countryside to eat them.Nowadays, flour and fat have been replaced by eggs, which is why it's traditional to bring a tortilla sandwich to school or work.Of course, each region celebrates this day differently, with a variety of foods and traditions.Basically, it's a day spent outdoors where food plays a big role. The celebration is especially popular in the eastern regions of the Iberian Peninsula, where there's a saying: 'Jueves lardero, longaniza en el puchero' (On Lardero Thursday, sausage in the pot). josevillaltaTranslated from Cookpad Spain -
Microwave Potato Tortilla Microwave Potato Tortilla
Sometimes we feel too lazy to prepare certain dishes because of the hassle involved in making them, or because they don't sit well with us due to the excess fat, even though we love them.This might be the case with the potato tortilla, a classic that is a must in our homes, but sometimes we skip making it because we feel lazy or it doesn't sit well with us.With this recipe, we have no excuse. The potato cooks in the microwave in 15 minutes, and we can add onion or not, depending on our taste. The result will surprise you because the potato turns out perfect, not like boiled potato, but with body, and best of all, with hardly any fat. DirectoALaMesaTranslated from Cookpad Spain -
