Classic Spanish Tortilla

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a classic Spanish tortilla? Prepare the ingredients. Take medium-sized potatoes, and larger eggs. If you have small ones, then take a larger amount. Wash the vegetables and eggs well and dry them.

2. Step 2:

   

   Peel the bell pepper from the seeds and cut into small cubes or straws.

3. Step 3:

   

   Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin circles or semicircles if the potatoes are large.

4. Step 4:

   

   In a deep bowl, break the eggs. Add salt, pepper and whisk until smooth. A simple fork will be enough, pomp is not needed for a tortilla.

5. Step 5:

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Put the potatoes in it, add a little salt.

6. Step 6:

   

   Mix well so that each potato slice is covered with butter.

7. Step 7:

   

   Cover the pan with a lid and put out the potatoes, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes.

8. Step 8:

   

   Put the bell pepper and stewed potatoes in the beaten eggs.

10. Step 9:

    

    Mix everything carefully, trying to keep the potato slices whole.

11. Step 10:

    

    Return the resulting mass to the pan and smooth it out. Simmer for about 5 minutes, separating the edges of the tortilla from the pan with a silicone spatula.

12. Step 11:

    

    Then cover the pan again and fry the dish for about 2-3 more minutes.

13. Step 12:

    

    Now you will need to flip the tortilla to the other side. To do this, remove the lid and put a wide dish on top.

14. Step 13:

    

    Firmly pressing the dish, turn the pan over so that the tortilla is on the plate.

15. Step 14:

    

    Pour a little vegetable oil into the pan and return the tortilla to fry on the other side. Cook it for about 5 more minutes.

16. Step 15:

    

    Transfer the finished tortilla to a dish and serve it to the table. That's how it turns out to be beautiful, with a golden crust and interspersed with pieces of Bulgarian pepper. Enjoy your meal!
