I spent a summer in Spain a few years ago and loved it. One of my favorite dishes was Tortilla Espanola. Here's an unsafe recipe for it:
2 large potatoes, peeled and finely chopped (3 cups) 1 medium onion, finely chopped 1 cup diced cooked ham 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon crushed dried chile pequins or red peppers 2 tablespoons cooking oil 6 beaten eggs 1/3 cup milk 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper
1. Combine potatoes, onion, the 3/4 teaspoon salt, crushed chilies and ham. 2. Heat oil in a 10 inch ovenware skillet. 3. Add potatoe and ham mixture to skillet. 4. Cover and cook over med heat 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. 5. Combine eggs, milk, 1/2 t. salt and pepper. 6. Pour over potatoes and ham in skillet. 7. Reduce heat and cook over low heat 8 to 10 minutes or until eggs are nearly set. 8. Uncover skillet and place under broiler 3 to 4 inches from heat 2 to 3 minutes or just until top is set.
4-6 servings
I was thinking that instead of the oil, I could use cooking spray, but I think all that oil is what gives it it's flavor. And cutting out the egg yolks will basically make it an egg white omelette with onions and potatoes.
Anyone tried this? What do you think?
