Cooking Instructions
- 1
First, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C), using both upper and lower heat if possible.
- 2
Peel the potatoes, rinse them, and cut them into cubes that aren't too thick. If you prefer, you can also slice them. Place the potatoes in a microwave-safe container with a lid (or cover with plastic wrap with a few holes if you don't have a lid), add just enough water to cover the bottom, and sprinkle with a little salt. Microwave on high for about 10 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
- 3
Check that the potatoes are soft; if not, microwave for a few more minutes.
- 4
Beat the eggs, add the potatoes, season with salt to taste, and pour the mixture into a round oven-safe baking dish that you have brushed with olive oil. Using a round dish will give your tortilla a nice shape.
- 5
Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, depending on your oven. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick or knife in the center.
- 6
About 5 to 10 minutes before taking the tortilla out of the oven, drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over the top to help it brown. Once it's done, let it cool slightly before removing from the dish—be careful not to burn yourself. It comes out easily, even when cold. For a healthy side, serve with sautéed peppers. Enjoy!

I had this a few times while travelling in Spain, so when I got home I wanted to learn how to make it. All of the recipes I could find have about the same ingredients (it's a very basic recipe), but I wanted to learn more about the technique to make it just like they do in Spain. I'm posting this here hoping that some of you cooking pros will chime in with some advice on how to make the perfect tortilla!

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
