AUTHENTIC SPANISH TORTILLA RECIPE (TORTILLA ESPANOLA)
Steps:
- Cut the potatoes into small cubes.
- Heat up extra virgin olive oil in a frying pan and add the potatoes. Ensure using enough olive oil so that the potatoes are fully covered.
- When the potatoes are completely cooked, drain them in a colander using a paper towel. This way, the towel will soak most of the oil, and the leftover oil can be used later in other recipes.
- Slice the onions in vertical long slices and add them to the frying pan with a bit of olive oil.
- Sauté the onion slices over medium heat until they start to caramelize. This usually takes around 15-20 minutes depending on the flame.
- Beat the eggs in a large bowl (ensure doing this at room temperature), and add a bit of salt which will help your eggs retain most of the moisture when you're cooking them. Note: Use around 2 eggs per potato for the ideal flavor.
- Add the caramelized onions and the potatoes to the beaten eggs and mix everything. Once everything is nicely mixed, let the mixture sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Pour the tortilla mixture into the frying pan gently, and set the flame on medium-low heat. DO NOT cook your Tortilla Espanola over an extremely hot pan, as it can burn or overcook which is not something you want.
- Grab a large plate to flip the tortilla. Ensure using a plate that is larger than the pan, as it will successfully flip the tortilla without scrambling it. Put the plate on top of your pan, and flip it quickly. It may be runny, but that's how it is before the other side is cooked as well.
- Slowly slide the tortilla back into the frying pan and let the other side cook on a medium flame for an additional 6-8 minutes. If you like your tortilla fully cooked, you can let it cook a little bit more before taking it off the pan.
- Flip the tortilla again but on a clean plate this time. Let it cool down for 10 minutes before devouring, as the recipe tastes a whole lot better at room temperature.

Steps:
- Peel and thinly slice the potatoes. Soak slices in water for 10 minutes. Drain and dry completely in a salad spinner. Meanwhile, pour enough olive oil into a large saucepan so it's about an inch deep. Heat over medium heat until a slice of onion bubbles gently when placed in the oil, about 310 degrees F. Add the onions and fry, stirring occasionally until just golden, about 8 minutes. Scoop the onions from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper-towel lined baking sheet.
- Add about half of the potatoes, and fry until lightly golden and a little puffy, about 10 minutes. Scoop the potatoes from the oil, add to the onions. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes. Reserve the oil. Season the vegetables with 3 teaspoons of the salt. (The preparation of the vegetables can be done up to 2 hours ahead.)
- Break the eggs into a large bowl. Whisk just enough to combine but not so much that they get loose and runny, about 15 times. Add the vegetables and remaining 1 teaspoon salt.
- Heat a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the reserved oil and heat. Add the tortilla mixture and stir briskly with a spatula to get peaks and valleys in the folds of the egg, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stop stirring and reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the eggs are set but still pretty loose, about 5 minutes. Lay a flat pan lid or a plate on top and invert the tortilla. Add more oil to the pan if needed, and slide the tortilla back into the pan, cover and finish cooking until set and lightly brown, about 3 minutes more. Slide the tortilla out of the pan to a cutting board to cool slightly.
- Cut into cubes or thin wedges and serve warm or room temperature as is or with 1 of the suggested toppings.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sugar and half the salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and sweet, about 1 hour. If the onions begin to get really brown, add a splash of water to slow them down.
- Meanwhile, cut the tomatoes, crosswise. Grate them on the cut side on the largest holes of a box grater into a bowl all the way down to the skins. Discard skins. Add tomato puree, pimenton and bay leaf to the caramelized onions, and continue to cook until quite thick and the tomato separates from the oil, about 10 to 15 minutes more. Season with the remaining salt or to taste. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl mix the potatoes, onions, and 1/2 teaspoon salt by hand.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Fry the potatoes and onions on low heat and cover with a lid for 5 minutes to let them soften. Turn up the heat for another 5 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the stove and drain off any excess oil.
- Meanwhile break the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the remaining salt and milk and whisk vigorously until frothy. Add the potatoes and onions to the eggs and mix until fully integrated.
- Clean the frying pan and return to stove.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil on a high heat and pour in the mixture, moving it around in the pan to help the tortilla to rise. Fry until golden brown, stirring occasionally until it has set. Then turn down the heat to allow the inside to cook. After a few minutes turn up the heat in order to brown the tortilla.
- When it's cooked place a large plate over the frying pan and flip the tortilla onto it. Return to the pan and fry the other side until golden brown.

Steps:
- Put a large non-stick frying pan on a low heat. Cook the onion slowly in the oil and butter until soft but not brown - this should take about 15 mins. Meanwhile, peel the tomatoes (if using) by scoring the skins with a cross, putting them in a bowl and pouring over just-boiled water. Drain the water after 2-3 mins and the skins will peel away easily. You can then coarsely grate them.
- Add the potatoes to the pan, then cover and cook for a further 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally to make sure they fry evenly. When the potatoes are soft and the onion is shiny, crush 2 garlic cloves and stir in, followed by the beaten eggs.
- Put the lid back on the pan and leave the tortilla to cook gently. After 20 mins, the edges and base should be golden, the top set but the middle still a little wobbly. To turn it over, slide it onto a plate and put another plate on top, turn the whole thing over and slide it back into the pan to finish cooking.
- Once cooked, transfer to a plate and serve the tortilla warm or cold, scattered with the chopped parsley. To accompany the tortilla, take slices of warmed baguette, stab all over with a fork and rub with the remaining garlic, pile on the grated tomatoes and season with sea salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
