Steps:
- Put a large non-stick frying pan on a low heat. Cook the onion slowly in the oil and butter until soft but not brown - this should take about 15 mins. Meanwhile, peel the tomatoes (if using) by scoring the skins with a cross, putting them in a bowl and pouring over just-boiled water. Drain the water after 2-3 mins and the skins will peel away easily. You can then coarsely grate them.
- Add the potatoes to the pan, then cover and cook for a further 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally to make sure they fry evenly. When the potatoes are soft and the onion is shiny, crush 2 garlic cloves and stir in, followed by the beaten eggs.
- Put the lid back on the pan and leave the tortilla to cook gently. After 20 mins, the edges and base should be golden, the top set but the middle still a little wobbly. To turn it over, slide it onto a plate and put another plate on top, turn the whole thing over and slide it back into the pan to finish cooking.
- Once cooked, transfer to a plate and serve the tortilla warm or cold, scattered with the chopped parsley. To accompany the tortilla, take slices of warmed baguette, stab all over with a fork and rub with the remaining garlic, pile on the grated tomatoes and season with sea salt and a drizzle of olive oil.

SPANISH TORTILLA WITH TOMATO-PEPPER SALAD
A Spanish potato tortilla is an egg dish unlike any other. It doesn't resemble the French omelet, which is loose and wobbly. Nor is quite like an Italian frittata, which is puffy and custardy. Instead, a tortilla is a solid cake with just enough egg to bind the soft, sliced potatoes. The first step to making it is to gently cook sliced potatoes and onions in plenty of olive oil. And plenty means at least a cup, or maybe two. It sounds like a lot but most of it stays in the pan (and you can reuse it). Other than adding great flavor, the oil turns the potatoes velvety and luscious. Just make sure the heat is low enough so the potatoes and onions cook but don't brown very much, though a few darkened spots are okay. In Spain, a tortilla is a tapas staple nibbles with drinks. But it's also delightful for brunch, dinner or lunch, served either warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Peel potatoes and halve them lengthwise. Thinly slice them crosswise. Pat potatoes dry with a dish towel or paper towels. Toss potatoes with onion, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat and warm through. Add oil, then add potatoes and onion. (You need enough oil to almost cover the potatoes, so adjust amount according to your pan size.) Cook until potatoes are just tender enough to cut with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes, adjusting heat so vegetables do not burn or take on too much color. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes and onions to a colander set over a bowl and let cool. Reserve 3 1/2 tablespoons oil from the skillet to use for finishing the recipe. (You can reuse the rest of the remaining oil, too; store it in the refrigerator.)
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat 2 tablespoons of the reserved oil in an oven-safe 8- to 9-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir potato mixture into eggs. Pour mixture into pan and use a spatula to flatten out surface. Cook, using spatula to occasionally loosen eggs from edges of pan, until top is almost set, with just a small amount of liquid remaining, about 5 minutes. Transfer to oven and cook until top is just set, 5 to 7 minutes longer. Slide tortilla onto a plate.
- In a large bowl, toss together tomato, pepper, scallion, garlic and remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Top tortilla with salad and serve warm or at room temperature.

- Add remaining tablespoon oil and potatoes with garlic to skillet, spreading evenly, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Pour egg over vegetables and cook over moderately high heat, lifting up cooked egg around edges to let uncooked egg flow underneath, 3 minutes. Reduce heat to moderate and cook, covered, 5 minutes more (center will be moist).

Steps:
- Spread potatoes in a heavy flameproof casserole, cover with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Spread onion on top. Place over medium-high heat until oil bubbles. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring gently once or twice, until potatoes are tender but not broken, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Place a mesh colander over a heatproof bowl, and drain potatoes and onion, reserving oil. In a large bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Add potato mixture to eggs and stir gently to combine.
- Place an 8-inch nonstick pan or well-seasoned skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons reserved olive oil. Add one-third of the potato mixture and stir with wooden spoon or spatula. Cook until egg is barely set, about 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add another one-third of the mixture and stir for 15 seconds. Add remaining third and stir two or three times. Gently pat mixture to flatten it, and allow it sit until the top is loose, the center is somewhat firm and the bottom is firm (pale golden, not golden brown), about 30 seconds.
- Run a spatula around perimeter of tortilla, shaking pan to be sure edges and bottom are free. Place a small flat plate that fits securely inside pan directly on top of tortilla. Wearing a kitchen mitt, grasp handle close to pan. In one quick movement, flip tortilla onto plate.
- Quickly wipe out pan, add 2 tablespoons reserved olive oil, and return pan to medium-low heat until reheated. Slide tortilla back into reheated pan so the bottom is now the top. Pat down to compact layers of potatoes and eliminate air bubbles. When tortilla is set and bottom and edges are free of pan, use spatula or spoon to turn in the edges to give tortilla a more compact, attractive, shape. If desired, tortilla can be allowed to rest for 5 minutes on lowest possible heat, before turning onto a serving plate.
- To serve, slice hot tortilla in large wedges. It may also be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours, then served cold with mayonnaise.

Steps:
- Start by frying: Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Empty the potatoes into the pan, spread them out to cover the base, then fry for 5 minutes. Pour in the beaten eggs so they completely cover the potatoes, season well and leave the tortilla to cook on a medium heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until the base and edges have set.
- Grill to finish: Take the tortilla off the hob and place under a hot grill until the top is firm, then remove from the grill and scatter over the tomatoes and mozzarella. Put the tortilla back under the grill for a further 3-5 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft and the cheese has melted. To serve, cut into thick wedges.

TORTILLA DE PATATA (SPANISH POTATO & ONION OMELET)
No doubt about it, the Tortilla Espanola or Spanish Omelet is the most commonly served dish in Spain. It is also called Tortilla de Patata or Potato Omelet. Bars and cafés serve it as a tapa or appetizer, but it is often served as a light dinner in Spanish homes. Because it is easy to transport, the Spanish make bocadillos or sandwiches by placing a piece between two pieces of a baguette.

Steps:
- Cut the peeled potatoes in half lengthwise. Then, with the flat side on the cutting surface, slice the potato in pieces approximately 1/8" thick. Make sure to separate the pieces that stick together. It is not necessary to slice the potatoes paper thin and it is best not to use a food processor because most will slice the potatoes too thin. If you slice them a bit thick, don't worry - it will simply take a bit longer for them to cook.
- Peel and chop the onion into 1/4" pieces. Put potatoes and onions into a bowl and mix them together. Salt the mixture.
- In a large, heavy, non-stick frying pan, heat the olive oil on medium high heat. Drop a single piece of potato into the oil to ensure it is hot enough to fry. Carefully place the potato and onion mixture into the frying pan, spreading them evenly over the surface. The oil should almost cover the potatoes. You may need to turn down the heat slightly, so the potatoes do not burn.
- Note: If the oil is too hot, the potatoes will brown rapidly on the outside, but still be raw on the inside.
- Leave in pan until the potatoes are cooked. If you can poke a piece of potato with a spatula and it easily breaks in two, your potatoes are done. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon or spatula. Some cooks like to place the potato and onion mixture in a colander for a few minutes to allow more oil to drain. If you do this, place a plate underneath to catch the olive oil and you can use it again.
- While the mixture is draining, crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and beat by hand with a whisk or fork. Pour in the potato onion mixture. Mix together with a large spoon.
- Pour 1-2 Tbsp of olive oil into a small, non-stick frying pan (aprox. 9-10") and heat on medium heat. Be careful not to get the pan too hot because the oil will burn - or the tortilla will! When hot, stir the potato onion mixture once more and "pour" into the pan and spread out evenly. Allow the egg to cook around the edges. Then you can carefully lift up one side of the omelet to check if the egg has slightly "browned." The inside of the mixture should not be completely cooked and the egg will still be runny.
- When the mixture has browned on the bottom, you are ready to turn it over to cook the other side. Carefully take the frying pan to a sink. Place a large dinner plate (12") upside down over the frying pan. With one hand on the frying pan handle and the other on top of the plate to hold it steady, quickly turn the frying pan over and the omelet will "fall" onto the plate. Place the frying pan back on the range and put just enough oil to cover the bottom and sides of the pan - approximately 1.5 teaspoons Let the pan warm for 30 seconds or so. Now slide the omelet (which is probably still a bit runny), into the frying pan, using a spatula to catch any egg mixture that runs out. Use the spatula to shape the sides of the omelet. Let the omelet cook for 3-4 minutes. Turn the heat off and let the tortilla sit in the pan for 2 minutes.
- Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate! To serve as a main course, slice it into 6-8 pieces like a pie. Serve sliced French bread on the side.
- If you are serving as an appetizer, slice a baguette into pieces about ½ inch think. Cut the tortilla into 1.5" squares and place a piece on top of each slice of bread.
- It is simply delicious served with sofrito, fried tomato sauce that is made all over Spain. Tomatoes, onions, garlic, green peppers and olive oil sautéed in a frying pan.
TOMATO AND POTATO TORTILLA
This is a variation of the classic spanish dish, wich also can be made with as many ingredients as you can find in your refrigerator. For example, if you don't have potatoes but some leftovers of rice or plain pasta, use them instead and the tortilla will be also delicious. You can try whatever filling you want!
