SPANISH TORTILLA

This is best eaten warm or at room temperature, and can be served for lunch,
supper, or even cut into small pieces and served as tapas.

200 ml / 7 fl oz olive oil
500 g / 1 lb 2 oz potatoes, peeled, rinsed and thinly sliced
2 onions, sliced
6 eggs
1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
green salad, to serve

Heat all but two tablespoons of the oil in a deep non-stick 23 - 25 cm / 9 -
10 in frying pan. Add the potatoes and onions and cook over a medium heat
for about 15 minutes until tender, but not brown - let the potatoes stew in
the oil rather than deep fry. Drain the potatoes in a metal colander, then
season with salt.
Beat the eggs lightly in a large bowl, then mix in the potatoes, onions,
parsley, and salt and pepper, stirring with a fork.
Add the two tablespoons of oil to the frying pan and, when hot, spoon in the
egg mix and cook for about 10 minutes until just setting. Don't overcook as
the eggs should be a little runny inside.
Cover the frying pan with a large plate, holding it down firmly with the
flat of your hand, then carefully turn the pan upside down so the omelette
turns out on to the plate. Slide the inverted omelette back into the pan and
cook for 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature with a green salad.
