- Spanish Omelette - also known as a tortilla de patatas - is a signature egg dish which can be served warm or at room temperature and both are equally delicious. With the three key ingredients being potatoes, onion and eggs, the only thing left for discussion is how crispy you like your potatoes! This Spanish potato omelette is part of my international recipe collection and is made proudly by my good friend Juan who is a Spanish native. YUM.

Ingredients:
3 medium sized potatoes
5 eggs
1 onion
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Method:
1. To make the Spanish omelette, peel the three potatoes and then cut them in half, then into even quarters.
2. Slice the potatoes so that they are approx. 1cm thick. If they are too thin, they will over cook and if they are too thick, they will undercook, so this part is very important!
3. Put a medium size deep fry pan on the stove at a low heat. Add a generous serve of extra virgin olive oil and leave to warm up.
4. Once the oil is nice and warm, add the slice potatoes in and leave to simmer for up to 5 minutes.
5. Peel the onion and slice it into thin strips then add these to the pan also.
6. Leave the potato and onion to cook through until they start to soften.
7. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk 5 eggs really well.
8. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and carefully move the mixture around using a spatula so that the egg gets through.
9. Keep moving the mixture for the Spanish omelette around sightly and ensure the edges are not stuck to the side of the pan by slightly sliding the spatula down and around he whole tortilla.
10. Leave it to cook for around 10 minutes.
11. Get a large, flat dish and lay it down over the top of the fry pan. Holding the fry pan in one hand and placing your hand flat on top of the bottom of the dish, flip the pan so the Spanish omelette falls on to the dish and the pan is empty.
12. Transfer the raw side if the Spanish omelette onto the pan and leave to cook for another 10 or so minutes (depending on your preference).

Omg , I am Puertorican and I grew up with this , I made it this morning , thank you so much , ur channel is amazing 2 for 2
Thank you so much 😍
With cheese will be better?
@@cvetomir9224 add cheese and i swear a spanish tercio will come knock down at your door and not with good intentions.
@@cvetomir9224 jokes aside you do not need to overcomplicate this dish.
@@cvetomir9224 if you do add cheese, its only worth it if its a really good cheese like cabrales or a proper manchego.
But thats not authentic
Vincenzo - "...from Spain!"
Juan Carlos - "from E-spain"
Got to love the accents!
😊😊
That's how you know he got a real spaniard! great video!
This is the proper Tortilla Española , my mom, from Spain always makes this and I am always happy to eat it. Our home uses smaller dices potatoes and less onion, but every home has their own style, which I love. Its amazing that you can ghave so many variety with just three ingredients, patatas, cebolla, y aceite. I also remember going to a small place near the local beach in Cantabria and getting un pincho de tortilla after swimming. Great memories.
Oh thank you so much
Same mother used to sometimes add spinach or Bacon. Yum.
Can you cook potato in water, instead of frying it?
@@wearetheworld1945 no please, as a Spanish person that suggestion hurts😅 use a good amount of extra virgin olive oil.
This guy really knows what he's doing !! So many fools on UA-cam trying to show others how to cook when they have no idea themselves !! Well done Juan 👍🏻❤️
Amazing. The simplicity of this dish shows why it is still an at home classic. I love seeing real recipes that I can make at home and I can't wait to make this one
I'm in love with this recipe. Super simple and delicious
Thank you, Juan Carlos! I followed your instructions and it was perfect and delicious! My first attempt at making Tortilla Española 😊
Great! We’re happy you liked the recipe 😍😋 thank you
I lived in Spain for the first 8 years of my life. This tortilla looks amazing, it looks just as good (maybe even better) as my family in Spain makes it. My favorite Spanish dish is boquerones en vinagre.
oh wow, you're so kind Federico, grazie mille! 😍
You can never go wrong with potato, onion, and egg. So good, and this looks amazing. :)
So true! This is so good 🤤
Its all about simple but high quality ingredients. Just had it today and when cooked with passion it turns into an unforgettable dish.
Glad that you love it. This is a really good dish fit to share with family and friends over a good wine or coffee.
I think its important to mention that a nice trick is to leave the potatoes and onion with the raw eggs for 5 to 10 minutes in the bowl before putting the whole mix in the pan. And also to fluff it up on each side by gently pushing on the sides while its cooking. Great video guys!
my sister makes a great tortilla , she does like you mentioned by leaving iit ,
she says the potatoes and onions get egg attached to them and that makes a better tortilla ..
Thanks Juan Carlos for sharing this with us and thanks Vincenzo for arranging this 😊
My pleasure 😘
It looks amazing. I wish I had a bite.
grazie 😍 now you have to try this recipe!!
My mother used to make this tortilla and how I loved it. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe and technique. You brought back lovely memories of my Mom's cooking!
Hi Natalie, I'm very glad for all. Thank you so much. 😍
I made this omelette for my husband & he just loved it. Thank you so much for the recipe, this is a keeper.
Wow 😍 great job Cindee!! Thank you
Thank you very much Juan for sharing.
it was a pleasure for us! 🙏🏻
He cuts his potatoes and onions like I do, slowly and carefully, because we like our fingers. Grazie and muchas gracias, Vincenzo and Juan Carlos!
Haha exactly! Grazie Susan 😘
The best part of this omelette is that it was cooked on both sides. Thank God, finally someone did it! Ameen!
Amen! Thank you 😁😘
Brava. Gonna try for sure!
I'm sure you will love it!
Muchas gracias! After living in Veracruz, Mexico for a few years this is my favorite meal that I learned to cook while there. It was called Tortilla de Espana in Veracruz. Every person I’ve ever prepared it for absolutely loved it! I offered salsa on the side and served it with buttered toast. Thank you for sharing this video!! Tho I know how to make this excellent dish, it was wonderful to see someone prepare it who knew what they were doing!
fantastic .. your channel is just one of the best .. just subscribed
Welcome aboard! ❤ Glad you think so!
Very nice, I started watching you which brings back food memories. Keep it up
Usually my mother added Presley to the omelet.
I'm glad my videos evoke food memories for you! Food has a unique way of connecting us to our past. Adding parsley to an omelet is a wonderful touch - it's all about those small details that make each dish special. Keep enjoying those nostalgic flavors! 🍳🌿🥚😊
👏👏👏....excellent for anytime of the day!! Delicious thank you friends ❤️
Thank you so much! did you try my recipe? 😋😋
thank you so much for this recipe, I have made it twice already and is always a hit with my family and husband. Love you guys
wow, that's amazing! I'm super glad you tried and loved this recipe 😍
I lived in Spain for 37 yrs and just love the Spanish cuisine,my favourite dishes are paella de marisco y pulpo a la gallega.😋
That's wonderful! Spanish cuisine has its own unique charm and delicious dishes. It's great to appreciate and enjoy different culinary traditions. 🇪🇸🍽️😋
I love making these. So beautiful, and tastes good cold, too! Delicious!!!
Oh yes this is so delicious 😋 even cold, you’re right! 😋😋
WOW!! 😃 What a fantastic omelette. I've just eaten it right now.The onion flavour in the potatoes is perfect.Thank you for a charming video 💞💕💞💕
Hi Catherine. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I love potatoes with onion too😍 amazing flavor
A Spanish and an Italian enjoying lunch together, like two good brothers. It's a beautiful thing.
I went to Spain and fell in love with their tortilla, now I know how to make it! 😁
I fell in love with tortillas de patatas when I was in northern Spain. Thank you so much for sharing this
wonderful recipe. Mucho grasias!
Beautiful men at kitchen showing their knowledge. So lovely.
Muchas gracias Juan Carlos for your background of technique. Beautiful family you had.
Marvelous recipe and Juan is a natural in front of the camera. I really must try making this dish, it looks wonderful. I do hope to see more videos with Juan cooking his family's dishes. As a professional barber I must say you both have fantastic haircuts that suit you perfectly. Congratulations to your barbers also!
The best of Spain is when you wake up and u know u gonna eat Tortilla with bread & coffee con leche lol just cool 👍
Lol 😁
Juan Carlos and Vincenzo...thank you very much for sharing this recipe! I am going to make this! Grazie and muchas gracias!
Hope you enjoy! Please try this recipe and let us know 😋
Lovely omelette. Very hygienically prepared. Guys you rock.
Grazie mille cuochi per questo magnifico video
I'm sending love and respect from Tunisia ❤❤❤
I am a Texan living in Thailand for 9 years. I make lots of Texas/Tex-mex potato dishes and Thai omelettes with Thai herbs. But this looks b.e.a. utiful!!! Thank you so very much for teaching us Juan Carlos this classic spanish dish. Great job brother! Peace!
Hey there, good to see you! That's an interesting mix of Texan and Thai cuisine you got going on there. Have you tried any Italian dishes with a twist? 😋
Awesome... I can feel the smell and the taste... Awwww sooooo yummy... Love from Egypt 🇪🇬
La primera vez que veo una receta real de tortilla de patatas tal y como la hacemos en España.Enhorabuena Vicenzo y Juan Carlos.
Oh my God,it's so simple,i want try at home,gracias chef👌
Most welcome 😊 Please try it and let us know!
Well thanks to your simple recipe I made it for my wife this evening, it came out perfect! Thanks again! I topped it with crispy bacon crumbles, I'm sure she'll be asking for it again. Thanks a bunch! Dave from California USA
Wow crispy bacon 😍😍 you have me an amazing idea!
The timing couldn’t be more perfect!! I was planning on attempting this dish this week for something different and had been googling recipes. Thanks to Juan Carlos and Vincenzo for this treat!! As for your question, of the 5 times I’ve been to Europe, I’ve visited Spain 4 times and it’s beginning to feel like a second home. Love everywhere I’ve seen but especially Jerez (where my husband and I have some of our very best friends, but I’m also obsessed with Sevilla, Barcelona and Granada; so hard to pick and so so much more to see there🥰😍 Salud
what a timing, I'm glad your research brought you here! Please try our recipe, and you will love it...and since Spain is like your second home, then you have to let us know if you approve it or not 😍
A restaurant I know adds one sweet potatoe to give it a delicious sweetness. No one knows where that sweetness comes, but it is wonderful addition I find.
Wow! A delicious secret ingredient 😋
This looks fantastic, I can't wait to try it , thank you so much for sharing your family's recipe with us 😊
It is always a pleasure for me and for us! 🙏🏻 will you make this recipe? 😋
@@vincenzosplate I will indeed !!!
I always flip my big omelettes using a plate. Good to see someone else doing that, too.
The best technique 😊
Yeah that's the way to do it
Well, that’s how we all do it in Spain jajajaj
There’s no other way with tortillas, they’re supper heavy compared to omelettes 😅
They also break easily and you can’t bend them as you can with omelettes
100%
Wow its looks deliciouso and easy to cook and very simple omelette
Yes, simple and very delicious
Omg!! It looks so delicious. I can taste it in my brain. Lol
Maria Santiago with potato capsicum onion and eggs you will be in heaven
Yes I too imagine it in my cells😊👍
😂😂😂😂Brain power
Man! That looks really delicious!!!
this is so good, my friend Juan made it to perfection!

Buen provecho... Gracia Juan Carlos! Due grandi chefs! Thank you gentlemen!
muchas gracias 😘 are you going to make it??
@@vincenzosplate : I’m going to try. I haven’t eaten this since I was a boy. I’ll make it for my wife and sons.
Juan Carlos: Great dish to share. Thank you for teaching us how to cook it.
it was a pleasure for him to share this delicious recipe! 😊
@@vincenzosplate I think I will try it too. Only variation for me is I will take out the onion. I am not really a big onion fan:} .
Mmmm looks so good!!!
My fav city in spain is Malaga!! I love it so much. I travel there 3 times a year. Also other cities i like; Granada, Sevilla, Valancia.
Thank you! Spain is beautiful 😍
I grew up in Granada
I learned to make this in Sevilla.
Malaga is the best! Underrated. Used to live there.
I have tried after watching your video and my family liked it. And Happy to watch your show. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much Pankaj! We’re glad you liked the recipe ☺️
Merci beaucoup pour partager avec nous cette recette de famille excellente. Bisous!
Thank you too for watching this video 😍 hope you'll enjoy it
I do it exactly the same way, except that I only add salt when the potatoes are in the egg mix in order to not let the potatoes loose water into the oil. Also, let the potatoes rest in the egg for 30 minutes, it will enhance the flavor. Saludos
Ciao Antonio, those are great tips, thank you!
I will definitely try next time
Thankyou it's fab I've tried it xxx
amazing, we're glad you loved this recipe 😋
¡Bravo!
grazie 🙏🏻
Super nice!
I make it a bit different, by frying the onions alone a bit first, then I put the potatoes on top :) I also like to cook it fast with the egg so the inside is a bit more raw (but does not leak or anything)
Sounds great! Maybe I have to try someday 😋
Se ve delicioso....gracias por compartir!
¡Nos alegra que te guste esta receta! lo intentarás? 😘 (how is my Spanish? 😂)
Well explained Chef, I'll try it someday. Thanks for the upload Guys.
Muchas Gracias Juan! and Vincenzo :)
it was a pleasure for us 🙏🏻
Looks so yummy, I must definitely cook this dish. I liked the way you flipped the omelette. Bravo !!! So cool.
Wow this is indeed a mouth watering dish I love and will try it.Thanks
That looks so yummy n delicious, i want to try it, thanks for the recipe, gbu 😍
Yesss, try this because it worth it
I just made it now ... thank you very much ... love to always learn something new
Yayyyy, this is great to hear 😍 thank you a lot!!
Thanks Carlos.
it was a pleasure for us!
Hello & thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I just made it to perfection. The flavor was phenominal. I cannot believe a dish so simple, tastes this amazing!! My new addition to breakfast menu. Once again, thank you!
Wonderful! This is exactly what I love to hear from you 🙏🏻❤ Many thanks to you, and great job, I'm really glad you tried and loved this recipe!
@@vincenzosplate i made it twice so far, my kids love it! As do I, thank you from the bottom of my heart for this superb recipe!
This looks spectacular! Muchas gracias Juan!
Juan is GREAT! He made this omelette to perfection 😍
Looks great! Can't wait to try that. Question: Do you re-use the oil? Seems like a lot of oil to just throw out.
Please try this recipe and let me know 😋
Yes. We re-use the oil
El aceite de oliva soporta bastante temperatura y puede ser reutilizado...el de girasol no...habitualmente el de girasol en España solo se utiliza en repostería, ya que tiene menos sabor y no interfiere con los sabores del dulce. El de oliva se utiliza en fresco ( ensaladas, pan con tomate y jamón...), para freír y para los guisos....la mantequilla y manteca de cerdo solo en repostería...
Thank you for sharing your experience and recipe Mr. Juan from Fort Worth Texas
Thanks, Juan Carlos for sharing this amazing dish with us and thank Vincenzo for this great video
Our pleasure! Juan Carlos made a perfecr spanish omelette 😋 this is a must try recipe!

Thank you! Cheers!
Wow yummy..... thanks for sharing
Salam from Indonesia 😊😊👍👍👍
Hi Asih. Thank you too for watching this 😍Greetings from Vincenzo
My husband and I have been to Spain 3 times the last time for 2 months. Love the culture there. This dish had become one of our favorites. One place added a bit of sausage to it. It was great either way. Thanks for the video and a little peak back at Spain
@@vincenzosplate it's too hard to say what my favorite place is. Madrid for the sights,Granada just because it's such a cool place, Torrevieja, the beautiful beaches, Murcia, some wonderful friends. Love different areas for different reasons.
@@vincenzosplate if you go try to stop at a cafe/bar called Beauty and the Beast. They had lots of tapas. Order a couple drinks and have your meal. Enjoy.
Will make this for sure. thank you so much
OMG guys. It’s 4am where I am and I am going to cook this right now 😱
