Potatoes are a great comfort food when the evenings are getting chilly. This is why I’m choosing to share a recipe for Tortilla Española, a very common and popular kind of Spanish omelette, traditionally served at room temperature and as a tapa.

Ingredients

6 large eggs

1 1/2 lb. golden potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8" thick slices

1 1/4 c. olive oil

1 large onion, very thinly sliced

Finely chopped parsley, for garnish

Directions

  1. In medium bowl, beat eggs with 3/4 teaspoon salt; set aside. In large bowl, toss potatoes with 1/4 teaspoon salt.

  2. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil on medium. Add potatoes; cook 10 to 12 minutes or until tender but not falling apart, gently turning occasionally. With slotted spoon, transfer potatoes back to large bowl.

  3. To skillet, add onion; cook 12 minutes or until very tender, stirring occasionally. With slotted spoon, transfer onion to bowl with potatoes. When potato-onion mixture has cooled slightly, gently stir in eggs until well combined.

  4. Drain all but 2 teaspoons oil from skillet (reserve oil for another use); heat on medium-high 1 minute. Add egg-potato mixture to skillet, spreading in even layer; reduce heat to medium. Cook 7 minutes or until eggs are mostly set and edges are browned.

  5. Loosen edges with rubber spatula. Remove skillet from heat and cover with large plate; carefully invert, holding plate and skillet together. Slide omelet back into skillet. Cook on medium 3 minutes or until bottom and center are set. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with parsley.
