Tortilla Espa\u00f1ola<\/strong> (also known as Spanish Omelette<\/strong>) couldn\u2019t be easier to prepare! Sliced potatoes and onions are fried in plenty of olive oil, then cooked with eggs, very much similar to an Italian frittata. This Basque version is also made with sweet red peppers and a little manchego cheese for an extra layer of flavour.<\/p>\n

In Spain, tortilla, which is one of the most famous national dishes refers to a hearty egg-and-potato dish that\u2019s typically served warm or at room temperature any time of day. It\u2019s the perfect snack, appetiser or tapas dish., one you find in many bars and cafes. The standard ingredients are simple and likely ones you already have on hand: potatoes, eggs, and onions. Tortillas are flipped and finished on the stove, which actually what separates them apart from an Italian frittata, which traditionally is finished in the oven.<\/p>\n

Spanish Potato Frittata – finished in the oven<\/h2>\n

This recipe would however qualify as a frittata rather than a tortilla, since I like to finish it jn the oven, rather than flipping it over in the pan. I find this easier when preparing a larger tortilla and since I am using a square skillet this is the easiest method to follow. For this recipe, I like to use my ELAG oven-prof skillet<\/a> as it is non-stick, and also has a heavy base, making it is great choice for frying potatoes. Not to mention, thanks to its square shape, it takes advantage of the entire cooking surface, when cooking with induction.<\/p>\n
