November 24, 2010: Leftover Makeover - Spanish-Style Tortilla

that orangish marinade, as well as eggs we'd bought for the pizza loaf.  I web-searched Spanish tortilla recipe as well as winged it from there.

Pre-cooking the potatoes, onion as well as silverbeet made for some long-ish grooming but ultimately nosotros idea it was worth it - this generated 4-6 satisfying serves.  The egg doesn't dominate quite as well as hence much every bit it would inwards a quiche or frittata, it's to a greater extent than at that spot simply to bind the other ingredients together.  I'll larn out the tofu out of the recipe below - nosotros had simply a small-scale amount, sliced as well as fried alongside the potatoes.

The most memorable piece of employment of this repast was Michael's impressive tortilla flipping - I don't mean value either of us has successfully upended anything as well as hence large inwards a frypan before!

Spanish-style tortilla
(inspired yesteryear online recipes such every bit this one)

iii large potatoes (about 600g)
300g silverbeet
1 large onion
six cloves garlic
v eggs
olive oil
tabular array salt as well as pepper

Peel the potatoes as well as spell them into sparse rounds.  Separate the silverbeet stems as well as leaves; chop the stems finely as well as the leaves roughly.  Chop the onion as well as garlic finely.

Heat some crude oil inwards the base of operations of a frypan as well as position out the murphy slices as well as hence they're non overlapping; kid them on both sides until they simply firstly to soften (they don't ask to last cooked through).  Transfer those spuds to a plate lined alongside absorbent newspaper as well as travel along to kid the murphy slices (+ bonus tofu slices) inwards batches.

When you're finished alongside the potatoes, sauté the onion as well as silverbeet stems until softened.  Add the garlic as well as silverbeet leaves, cooking until the leaves are slightly wilted.

Lightly compaction the eggs inwards a large bowl.  Stir inwards all of the vegetables gently, as well as hence that they're all coated inwards the egg.  There's no ask to last also fussy, though - there's no impairment inwards a few crumbled potatoes.  Transfer the entire mixture dorsum to the frypan, encompass it as well as ready it over depression rut for 5-10 minutes, until it's cooked at to the lowest degree half-way through.  Take a deep breath as well as ready for flipping!  Gently house a dinner plate over the tortilla as well as flip the plate as well as frypan together, as well as hence that the tortilla right away rests on the plate.  Slide the tortilla dorsum into the pan as well as ready it for a farther v minutes.  When it's ready, spell it into wedges to serve.
