Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 large onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb sweet potato, peeled and grated
1/2 bunch kale, washed and finely chopped
6 whole eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large 100% oven proof skillet over medium heat.
  • Add onion to the skillet and saute until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add garlic and sweet potato to the skillet and cook until the potatoes are slightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add chopped kale to the skillet and continue to saute until the kale is bright green and slightly wilted.
  • While the vegetables are cooking combine the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and whisk until thoroughly blended.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the cooked vegetables and, without stirring, allow to cook on medium-low heat until the eggs have almost set, about 5 minutes.
  • To finish cooking the tortilla transfer the skillet to a preheated oven and broil on high (500 degrees Fahrenheit) until the top is golden brown.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and run a silicone spatula around the edge of the pan to remove the tortilla from the pan.
  • Serve warm with your favorite aji or hot sauce.
