The tortilla (or Spanish omelette) can be served hot or cold and is a fantastic way of using up all kinds of ingredients - simply add in any leftover vegetables, crumbled or grated cheese, jarred red peppers or cooked sausage.

Steps to make Spanish Tortilla:
- Peel potatoes and cut into approx. 3cm x 3cm cubes.
- Coarsely cut the paprikas,
- Green bell peppers,
- And garlic.
- In large & deep frying pan, coat with olive oil and on medium heat cook potatoes only for 10 min.
- Coat the frying pan again with olive oil and pour the entire potato / egg mix back in. On low to medium heat, cook for 10 - 15 min. until the tortilla starts to firm up. The very top will still be a bit liquidy, but this is ok as you'll flip it below.
- Crack and mix all eggs in a large stainless steel bowl.
- Pour the entire potato mix into the egg bowl and mix so that all potatoes get covered. The hot potatoes will start cooking the egg mix, so work quickly.
- Add bell peppers & garlic, cook for another 10 min. until potatoes become soft. Stir often so mix won't burn and continue adding olive oil as needed. Salt & pepper as needed.
- This is the hard part. Place a large flat plate on top of the frying pan and flip the pan so that the tortilla transfers to the plate. Then slide the tortilla back into the pan to cook the bottom. You only get one chance! Cook for another 5 - 10 min.
- Remove from frying pan and let sit for at least 30 min. before eating. Can be served hot, or chilled in the fridge for a few hours. Can top it with mayonnaise or tomato sauce.
