Tortilla de Patatas
By RecipeLot
Tortilla de patatas (potato omelette) is also sometimes called Tortilla espaņola de patatas (Spanish omelette) to differentiate it from the dish commonly known as tortilla francesa (French omelette) or just tortilla, which is made only with eggs, as well as from the Mexican/Mesoamerican tortilla made from maize/corn or wheat flour. It is a very popular dish at any kind of event in Spain and can be served either cold or hot. It is also served as a tapas dish. Although potatoes and eggs are the basic and in most cases the only ingredients of a tortilla de patatas, other vegetables can also be found accompanying it such as onions and, more rarely, red peppers, chives, artichokes, ham or even chorizo, and then it is called tortilla paisana.
