My thoughts:

Tortilla de Patatas is ane of my favorite things to lodge when nosotros become tapas. We had a especially proficient ane inward London of all places in addition to it has been inward the dorsum of my hear e'er since to brand ane myself. Flipping it is somewhat harrowing but it does give a non bad browned crust on both sides. If you lot don't experience upwards to browning it, role an oven-safe skillet in addition to complete it off inward the oven every bit you lot would it's Italian cousin the frittata.

Apparently, fifty-fifty the role of onions in Tortilla de Patatas is a fleck of a ground amid cooks thus I'm certain peppers mightiness live on met amongst around skepticism likewise but they are both thus non bad inward this I don't care. It non solely was real tasty but it is a fairly quick dish to brand when you lot don't convey much inward the menage beyond the basics.
