REAL SPANISH OMELETTE

Steps:

• Scrape the new potatoes or leave the skins on, if you prefer. Cut them into thick slices. Chop the onion.

• Tip everything into the pan and cook on a moderate heat, using a spatula to shape the omelette into a cushion.
• When almost set, invert on a plate and slide back into the pan and cook a few more minutes.
• Invert twice more, cooking the omelette briefly each time and pressing the edges to keep the cushion shape. Slide on to a plate and cool for 10 mins before serving.

SPANISH OMELET

Steps:

• Whisk eggs with a fork and add a pinch of salt.
• Heat oil in a frying pan (not one with a heavy base as this will prove to be a hindrance when preparing to do the flip).
• Add the potato and fry for a couple of minutes.
• Add oniond and mash together.
• When the potato starts to brown a little on the edges and is mashed up with the onion in a lumpy fashion then add the eggs and optional red pepper.
• Make sure the potato and onions are fully submerged by the eggs.
• Poke the potato to allow some of the egg to seep into the mashed mixture.
• Fry this gently on a low heat.
• While cooking shake the pan to loosen the tortilla from the base and tidy the edges up with a wooden spoon.
• Do not over cook.
• The middle will still be a little runny and gooey.
• The egg will start setting, as this happens place a plate over the pan, a large enough plate to cover the pan substantially, and with a quick coordinated movement of both wrists 'flip' the tortilla over onto the plate and slide back into the pan to cook the underside.
• Keep shaking the pan lightly so the tortilla does not stick to the bottom.
• Once it feels firm on the edges and soft in the middle (after about 1 minute) then slide the tortilla back onto the plate.
• For the brave heart you can do the flip again if you wish.
• Let the tortilla rest for about 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
• Cut into cake slices or cubes.
• Garnish with green olives.
