The Delightful Spanish Omelette: A Culinary Classic
The Spanish omelette, also known as “tortilla de patatas,” is a classic dish from Spain made with simple ingredients: eggs, potatoes, and onions. This delicious omelette is cooked slowly to create a soft, fluffy texture on the inside with a golden, slightly crispy outside. It’s a popular meal in Spain, enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and can be served hot or cold. Easy to make and full of flavor. This is my take on this famous recipe, so many people may find it slightly different from classic recipe.
