Learn how to make an authentic Spanish tortilla as a snack with this step-by-step guide. An indispensable recipe for the most delicious drinks moments!
Gathering ingredients
Gather the necessary ingredients: potatoes, eggs, onions, and olive oil. Start by gathering four medium-sized potatoes. Peel them and cut them into small cubes. You will also need four eggs. Boil them in a pan until hard-boiled and then cut them into slices. Also gather two onions and chop them finely.
Make sure you have olive oil on hand as well. Heat a pan over medium heat and add a dash of olive oil. You are now ready to start cooking!
Prepare potatoes and onions
Peel the potatoes and onions. Cut them into thin slices. Make sure the slices are of equal thickness so that they cook evenly during the cooking process. Use a sharp knife to make cutting easier and watch your fingers to avoid injury. Once all the potatoes and onions are cut, they can be prepared according to the recipe you are following. Good luck with cooking your potatoes and onions!
Frying potatoes and onions
- Cut the potatoes and onions into thin slices.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sliced potatoes and onions to the pan.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Test the potatoes by poking them with a fork – they should be tender without offering too much resistance.
- When cooked, serve the fried potatoes and onions immediately. Enjoy!
Beat eggs
Beat the eggs in a bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir well until everything is well combined. Make sure the mixture is smooth and that the salt and pepper are evenly distributed. Use a whisk or a fork to beat the eggs well, until there are no more visible pieces of egg white. This will give you a light and tasty egg mixture that is ready to use in your recipe.
Add potatoes and onions
Add the fried potatoes and onions to the bowl with the beaten eggs. Make sure the potatoes and onions are evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture for a delicious frittata. Stir gently with a spatula to combine everything well and let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. You may choose to add some additional herbs or cheese for extra flavor. Think fresh herbs like parsley or chives, or grated cheese like Parmesan or cheddar.
Cook the mixture in a greased frying pan over low heat until the bottom is lightly browned and the top is almost set. Use a lid to let the top of the frittata cook. Turn the frittata over using a large plate and cook the other side briefly. Serve the frittata warm as a main course with a fresh salad or enjoy it as part of a brunch. Try this recipe yourself and experiment with different additions to give the frittata your own unique twist!
Mixing and baking
Mix everything well. Make sure all the ingredients are well mixed, so that the flavors spread well. Then pour the mixture into a pan that you have first heated with a little oil. Fry the tortilla on both sides on medium heat until they are golden brown and crispy. Carefully turn the tortilla with the help of a spatula and fry the other side until it is also golden brown. Serve the tortilla warm and enjoy your homemade treat!
Serve
Let the tortilla cool down after removing it from the pan. Then cut it into wedges with a sharp knife. Place the cut tortilla wedges on a nice serving plate and make sure to arrange them neatly. You can then serve the tortilla as a delicious snack or as a tasty side dish with a main meal. Enjoy!
