Make tasty Spanish omelette with these simple steps

Spanish omelette, also known as Spanish tortilla, is a Spanish traditional dish, definitely one of the signature dishes in Spanish cuisine.

It is an omelette made with eggs and potatoes, optionally including onion.

Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 1 large red onion
• 3 med potatoes sliced or cubed
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper or some chili flakes/cayenne pepper
• Dhania fresh -chopped (optional)
• 1 medium red or green pepper (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Wash, peel and slice the potatoes, rinse them again and allow them to drain in a colander while you prepare other ingredients.

Step 2

Heat vegetable oil in a pan and add the sliced potatoes and chopped onions. Stir fry and season well with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Cover and allow those to cook slowly (on low heat) for 15 minutes until the potatoes are nice and soft.

Step 4

Meanwhile, whisk the 6 eggs in a large bowl. Whisk them well and season a little more with salt and pepper.

Add the whisked eggs to the potato and onion. Mix a little so the egg mixes with the potato and spreads evenly around the pan. Reduce the heat and let it cook uncovered for 7 minutes.

Step 5

Cook both sides and when the omelette is ready, take it out onto a serving plate and cut into slices, pizza-like slices.

Garnish with Dhania and serve with any salad, crusty bread or cold beverage.
