SPANISH-STYLE POTATO AND ONION FRITTATA
Spain has one of my favorite omelets made from potatoes, cheese and onions called a "tortilla." Not to be confused with a Mexican tortilla, a Spanish tortilla is like the perfect mash-up of a baked potato and scrambled eggs. The Spanish serve it like an appetizer, but I love making it into an omelet. The key is to season every layer with salt and pepper at each stage. Small yellow potatoes are a bit more work to peel and dice, but they're sweeter than larger russet potatoes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven in broiler mode and place a rack 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30.5 centimeters) below the heating element.
- Beat the eggs in a bowl and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and 1/4 cup (25 grams) of the Parmesan cheese.
- Place the peeled and diced potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl, then toss with 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of the olive oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 6 to 9 minutes total, or until fork tender.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of olive oil and the butter over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch (25-centimeter) omelet pan. Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes to the pan and toss gently so that the potatoes don't break apart. Season the mixture with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Pour the reserved egg mixture into the pan over the potatoes and onions. Shake the pan gently while you lift the edges of the frittata; repeat until the eggs start to set, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the stove to low and sprinkle the mozzarella and remaining 1/4 cup (25 grams) of Parmesan over the top of the frittata.
- Once the frittata is mostly set, place the pan under the broiler for a minute or two to lightly brown the cheese. Remove from the heat and let the tortilla rest for at least 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with some sour cream, if desired.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Peel the potatoes and slice thinly (about 1/4 inch thick) using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, or cut them into 1/2-inch cubes.
- Place the cut potatoes into a bowl and cover them with salted water. Soak for about 15 minutes.
- Slice the onion thinly.
- In a large, deep, nonstick, ovenproof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until the onion is soft, fragrant, and turning golden.
- Drain the potatoes and pat them dry.
- In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and season with salt and pepper. Reserve the bowl.
- Add the potatoes to the onion in the skillet.
- Cover and cook the potatoes over low heat until tender, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking to the pan and burning.
- In the reserved large bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Pour the cream and egg mixture over the potatoes and onion in the skillet. Sprinkle chopped parsley or cilantro over the eggs and potatoes, if using.
- Cook the mixture over low heat until the eggs seem mostly set, being careful not to burn them, about 5 to 8 minutes.
- Carefully flip the frittata by turning a plate upside down over the skillet.
- Turn the skillet over so the frittata falls onto the now right-side-up plate.
- Slide the frittata from the plate back into the skillet so the browned side is facing up and cook over low heat for a few more minutes.
- Cut the tortilla into wedges to serve.

POTATO AND ONION FRITTATA
This dish is based on the classic omelet of Spain, tortilla española. In the authentic dish, the potatoes are fried, and most recipes call for copious amounts of oil. In this version, I steam the potatoes to cut down on oil and use a waxier variety of potato with a lower glycemic index. Waxier potatoes also have a better texture when steamed instead of fried.

Steps:
- Steam the potatoes until tender, about eight minutes, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch nonstick skillet, and add the onions and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender but not browned, about five minutes. Add the potatoes to the pan, and toss together gently so that the potatoes don't break apart. Season generously with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
- Beat the eggs in a bowl, and add 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of freshly ground pepper. Stir in the potatoes and onions.
- Return the pan to the stove, and heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Drizzle in a drop of egg; when it sizzles and cooks at once, scrape the eggs and vegetables back into the pan. Shake the pan gently while you lift the edges of the frittata, and tilt the pan to let egg run underneath and set. When the bottom of the frittata has set, turn the heat to low and cover the pan. Cook gently for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the broiler.
- Uncover the pan, and slide under the broiler for a minute or two (watch closely) to set the top. Remove from the heat. Let the tortilla set in the pan for a few minutes, then slide out onto a serving plate. Allow to cool to room temperature, and cut into small diamonds to serve as hors d'oeuvres.

Steps:
- Heat a 10-inch cast-iron or nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Swirl in the olive oil. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the potato and 3/4 teaspoon of the salt. Continue to cook and occasionally stir until the onion and potato are slightly browned, 5 to 6 more minutes.
- Add the eggs and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt. Swirl them around the pan and lower the heat. When the eggs are set on the side but the top is still loose, place the pan under the broiler for 2 minutes. The frittata will turn slightly golden and puff up before it settles. Cut into wedges to serve. Wrap a wedge in a piece of parchment paper to give someone a portable breakfast bite.

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.
