No home across Spain misses a simple Spanish Potato Omelette for lunch or dinner once a week, at least. At the same time, no 'tapas' bar o cafeteria refuses to have a nice golden Spanish Potato Omelette, waiting for the customers to order a portion at any time. Ideal for sharing, taking away for lunch at work, school or to a potluck party, for taking away every time you go to enjoy the countryside, for kid's dinner or just for making it when someone pops up at dinner time and there's nothing really suitable to cook in a short time, any time can be a pretty good occasion for cooking it. So easy, so lovely... Can be eaten as a 'tapa', as a portion or in a 'bocadillo'. Anyway, it's delicious itself !!!

Así lo hacemos:

  1. Peel the potatoes.
  2. Cut them in THIN & TINY slices.
  3. Peel and cut the onion, too.
  4. Heat the oil medium in a frying pan.
  5. If you want to know if the oil is hot enough, put a small slice of potato. If it bubbles, then you can add all the potatos and onion slices.
  6. Salt them.
  7. It doesn’t matter if the potatoes exceed the height of the pan, once cooked they reduce almost a third.
  8. Turn down the temperature, it must be fried, not burnt!
  9. At the end of the cooking process, turn up the heating, so the potatoes get crispy.
  10. Remove the potatoes and onion from the pan.
  11. Strain them so they lose most of the grease.
  12. Put aside.
  13. Beat heavily the eggs in a deep a bowl and salt them.
  14. Add the potatoes and onion, already strained.
  15. Let the mixture settle for 5 or 6 minutes.
  16. Grease lightly and heat medium a NON-STICK pan.
  17. When hot, add the mixture.
  18. Let the mixture thicken slowly.
  19. Slide the pan slowly back and forth to not let stick the omelette on the pan.
  20. Turn the omelette onto a plate wide enough to cover the entire pan.
  21. Once on the plate, place it upside down back on the pan again, in order to seal and thicken slowly the other side too, until it gets a nice golden color.
  22. When done, place it back on a serving plate.
  23. Serve warm.
