Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes & Onion
Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced potatoes and onion (if using), season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft but not brown.
Step 2: Beat the Eggs
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 3: Combine Potatoes & Eggs
Once the potatoes and onions are cooked, drain off the excess oil (save some for later).
Gently mix the potatoes and onions into the beaten eggs, ensuring they’re coated well. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to allow the eggs to absorb the flavor.
Step 4: Cook the Tortilla
Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat.
Pour the egg and potato mixture back into the skillet and spread it evenly.
Cook for about 4–5 minutes, occasionally shaking the pan to prevent sticking. When the edges start to set, flip the tortilla: cover the skillet with a plate, turn the pan over, and carefully slide the tortilla back into the pan to cook the other side for an additional 3–4 minutes until golden brown.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!
Remove from the pan, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm or at room temperature.
Enjoy your delicious Spanish tortilla—simple, savory, and ready in no time! Perfect as a meal on its own or paired with a side salad. 🍳🥔
