1 medium onion, finely sliced
5 large free-range eggs
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and thinly slice the potatoes into rounds. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
Cook the Potatoes and Onions: Heat olive oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add the potatoes and onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Mix with Eggs: Lightly whisk the eggs in a bowl and season with salt. Add the cooked potatoes and onions, ensuring they’re evenly coated.
Cook the Omelette: Pour the mixture into the pan and cook over low heat for 20–25 minutes, gently pulling the edges inward with a spatula to create a rounded shape.
Flip and Finish: Carefully flip the omelette onto a plate, slide it back into the pan, and cook the other side for 2–3 minutes until set.
Serve: Let the omelette rest for a few minutes, then serve hot or cold. Slice into wedges for a meal or cube it for tapas.
Recipe Tips:
Use a non-stick pan with a 20cm (8-inch) base for the best results.
Pair your tortilla with a fresh salad or a glass of Rioja wine for a true Spanish experience.
For added flavor, try mixing in chopped herbs, roasted peppers, or a pinch of smoked paprika.
