    One of my friends took me to a Spanish Restaurant where I tried Spanish Tortilla for the first time. I happened to be watching Food Network the day that the episode aired where Ingrid was making this recipe. I was so happy that I finally would have the recipe to try it at home. Instead of using olive oil, I fry organic bacon and use the oil from the bacon to fry the potatoes. Great for breakfast or brunch!

    you'll just need a handy large plate, preferably large enough for the tortilla. Once the it's time to flip tortilla over, place the plate on top of the skillet, lift skillet and turn whole thing, plate & skillet over, making sure tortilla slides onto the plate. Now you can grease the skillet again and slide un-cooked side of tortilla back onto the skillet to cook for a few more minutes. My mom and abuelita have done it this way for very long time and now I do. Try it.

    When I lived in Spain I ate Spanish Tortilla all the time. This was great. I used the entire onion instead of half. The only problem I had was when it was time to flip it. It came out messy. I think next time I will broil the other side. Yum!

    My 13 year old son had an assignment to prepare a dish for The World Language Banquet, at his middle school. Students, parents and staff come to taste and enjoy food from all over the world. If a student prepared two dishes they would receive extra credit. My son made this recipe along with another of Ingrid's great recipes, (arroz con leche. With a little help from Mom, both dishes turned out great. We don't have a mandolin so I sliced the potatoes by hand-no big deal. Otherwise we followed the recipe exactly. He and I both look forward to making these recipes again to enjoy at home!

    This recipe tasted pretty good, but it would have tasted the same if I had just made scrambled eggs and some hash browns. This would be a good dish for a brunch, since it can be sliced up and served with other things. But alone it wasn't anything spectacular.

    My husband loved this recipe and so did I. I made it for dinner tonight and had two pieces (like pie and it wasn't heavy at all. Fabulous and I will be making this again. Thanks very much.

    Easy recipe to make in the morning and my son loved it! Love combination of potatoes and eggs together. There is many different ways you could tweak this recipe as well. If you wanted to add veggies/meat or whatever. This is just a simple recipe. Thanks Ingrid!

    When I first saw this recipe being made I thought it would be too "eggy", to my surprise it was great and my whole family loved it.

    I like her idea of slicing the potatoes and of mixing the egg and potatoes before putting in the oven. I have made this with cubed potatoes; a recipe from another Spaniard. This is much easier, and delicious! Great work Ingrid!!

    I agree with last review, this isn't really food.
