Tortilla
de patatas is a traditional Spanish egg dish similar to
a French omelet and an Italian frittata. This version includes
potatoes, red onion and green peppers.
STEAM
or microwave the potatoes for 6 minutes. HEAT the oil in a
frying pan over a medium heat and cook the onion and green
pepper for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. ADD the potato
and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to combine. WHISK the eggs
together in a bowl with the parsley, salt and pepper. POUR
the eggs over the vegetables in the pan, cover, and cook gently
over a low heat for 8 minutes. REMOVE the lid and place under
a hot oven broiler (griller) to cook for a minute or until
the top is set. CUT into wedges to serve.
Serving
ideas:
You can serve wedges of tortilla de patatas warm or cold
(it keeps well, covered and chilled, for 1-2 days). For
a Spanish-style meal, start with a bowl of Gazpacho
and accompany the tortilla with a salad and crusty bread.
