In Spain “tortilla” refers to a thin omelet. Bagged precooked potatoes will work beautifully here. Source: Relish Mag
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup cubed cooked potato, peeled
6 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh coarse ground black pepper
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon spanish paprika (smoked)
Directions:
1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add onion and potato and sauté 2 to 5 minutes.
3. Add eggs, salt and pepper. Mix together with a spatula to cook the layers of egg; after 1 or 2 minutes let the bottom set. Scrape edge of egg mixture from edge of pan, pushing gently toward the middle, but not slicing through, so that you have a thick omelet coming together.
4. Slide omelet onto a plate.
5. Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet.
6. Invert plate over skillet to return omelet to pan, cooked side up. Cook 2 to 3 minutes until browned.
7. Remove from pan, cool and serve, with Salsa Rosa on top.
8. To prepare the Salsa Rosa, whisk all ingredients together and chill.
