EASY SPANISH TORTILLA ESPANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onion, paprika, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the onions are soft and just starting to turn brown, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar until absorbed. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
• Whisk together the eggs, 1/2 cup of water and 1 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl. Add the potato chips and cooled onions and stir to combine. Let sit for a few minutes.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat, then add the potato and egg mixture and cook, until the bottom and the sides set and are a light golden brown, about 3 minutes (use a rubber spatula to help pull and peek around the sides). Transfer to the oven and bake until set, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly in the pan, then slide out onto a cutting board and cut into 12 wedges. Serve at room temperature.

TORTILLA ESPAñOLA (SPANISH POTATO OMELETTE)

Steps:

• Add oil to a medium frying pan (the smaller the easier to flip).
• Dice the potatoes into small digit-sized pieces.
• Fry the potatoes, garlic, and onions until they are tender and translucent, respectively.
• Break the eggs into a large bowl, scramble them.
• Add the cooked potatoes/onions to the eggs.
• Mix, add your spices of choice.
• Heat the frying pan until it's super hot (with plenty of oil- probably more than you think).
• Add the potato/egg mixture into the pan in a quick motion.
• About 5 seconds later, turn down the heat to medium (you don't want it to burn, just make a nice little crust).
• Cook for 10 minutes or until you smell burning, make sure that the tortilla can move in the pan and is not stuck on the bottom
• THE FUN PART: take a plate that's wider than the pan, place it on top of the pan.
• Put one hand (with a glove) on the plate.
• Use the other hand to grab the pan and with one swift motion, flip the pan so the plate ends up on the bottom and the tortilla on the plate.
• Add more oil to the pan, put the half cooked tortilla back in- this time you'll cook the bottom.
• Cook for 3-5 more minutes.
• Cut like a pizza, serve hot, cold or room temperature (great with mayonnaise).

• Once it starts to firm up around the edges and in the center (although it will still be a little runny on toplace a large plate (larger than the size of the paover the pan and flip the omelette onto the plate.
• At this point, the cooked side of the tortilla de patatas should be facing up.
• Now gently slide the omelette back into the pan. Aim the back of the omelette to slide into the back of the skillet and use the spatula to help slide the rest of it off the plate and into the pan. Then use the spatula again to press the sides of the omelette in and under, to keep that rounded edge.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In an ovenproof skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil until it shimmers, and place the potatoes into the hot oil. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with smoked paprika. Pan fry the potatoes, stirring and tossing occasionally, until they are beginning to soften, about 8 minutes. Stir in the onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes and onion are slightly browned and the onion is translucent, about 10 more minutes. Take the skillet off the heat, and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• Beat the eggs with 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large bowl. Stir in the parsley, add the potato-onion mixture, and lightly combine.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, then gently spoon the egg-potato mixture into the hot skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low, and shake the skillet a few times to help release the omelet from the bottom of the skillet.
• Slide the skillet into the preheated oven, and bake until the omelet is puffed and the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the omelet should come out clean. Cut the omelet into pie-shaped pieces, and serve hot.
