The potatoes take a lot longer than a few minutes to cook in order to mash. When I flipped it as instructed in the recipe, it broke up into pieces. I certainly wouldn't recommend making this the first time for company. Really not much different from eggs on hash browns.




Authentic Deliciousness!

I've been looking for a recipe that is just like the Tortilla Espanola I had in Spain several years ago. This is the recipe!!! Five stars, it's just like the tortilla I ate in the Plaza Mayor in Madrid!




Excellent Tortilla Espanola!

Had to use two skillets to fry the potatoes (good when you don't have that big of a skillet and cooks the potatoes through very well). Put them all together in one skillet and mashed them with the onions. Used six eggs instead of 3 (the 3 didn't coat the entire mixture well). The "flip" was a success and the taste was great! Next time though I will use Spanish Olive Oil instead of the Italian - believe this will make a difference in the sweetness of the taste. Loved it!




OMG! yum!!

This is so easy and makes a wonderful snack or light meal. I have found it takes about 10 min. or so to cook the potatoes enough before adding the eggs. I also add a bit of parmesan and milk to the eggs and with that addition it tastes just like the tortilla we had in barcelona! Best consumed with a fine spanish red. cheers!
