5-Ingredient Tortilla Espanola

Instructions

• In a large bowl, beat eggs vigorously with a large pinch of salt until frothy. Set aside.
• Heat a 10-inch (25 cm) nonstick skillet with ½ cup (120 ml) of the oil on medium height heat until oil is shimmering but not bubbling. Add potato slices and cook for 10-15 minutes until potatoes are soft but not crispy or burnt.
• Once done, drain potatoes and reserve oil. In the same pan ,add in reserved oil, heat, and add onions to cook until translucent for about 7 minutes or so. After they’ve cooked, strain the onions and reserve the oil again.
• In a heat-proof bowl, put in the onions and potato slices. To this, add the egg mixture, a generous pinch of salt and mix together.
• Heat skillet again with reserved oil. Wait until it is hot and pour in the combined egg mixture. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook until the eggs are set and the bottom is golden (about 5 to 7 minutes).
• Place a plate large enough to cover the surface of the pan over the top of the pan and carefully flip over the tortilla.
• Gently, slide the tortilla back into the pan with the cooked golden side facing up, and uncooked side on the bottom. Cook until the opposite side becomes golden, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• When this side has cooked, carefully flip back onto the plate.
• Let cool and serve!
• Enjoy!
