Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash, peel, and cut the potatoes in half, then slice them (if they are large, cut them into quarters first, then slice).
- 2
Peel and finely dice the onion.
- 3
Heat plenty of olive oil in a large skillet. When hot, add the potatoes and onion, season with salt to taste, and fry everything together.
- 4
In a large bowl, beat the eggs. When the potatoes are done, drain them in a colander to remove excess oil (about 10 minutes). Then add the potatoes and onion to the eggs. Gently mix, being careful not to break up the potatoes.
- 5
In a skillet (I used a small one and made 2 omelettes), add a little of the reserved oil and pour in the egg and potato mixture. Cook for a few minutes until the bottom sets, then place a plate on top, flip the omelette onto the plate, and slide it back into the skillet to cook the other side for a few more minutes. Cook to your preferred doneness. Enjoy!

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.

Tortilla de Patatas (Spanish Omelet with Potatoes) Tortilla de Patatas (Spanish Omelet with Potatoes)
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

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!

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.

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 -
