How to Make Spanish Tortilla Lighter Version
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large (10-inch) nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add 2 cloves of minced garlic to the oil and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
- Remove garlic from oil and discard.
- Add 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet.
- Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Cook onion for 5-7 minutes, or until translucent and softened, stirring occasionally.
- Add 2 cups of diced, cooked potatoes (about 2 medium potatoes, cooked until tender) to the skillet.
- Stir to combine potatoes and onion. Cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to prevent sticking and browning.
- Taste a small piece of potato and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the potato and onion mixture in the skillet.
- Gently shake the pan to distribute the eggs evenly.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly browned, and the bottom is cooked through.
- Carefully invert a large plate over the skillet and flip the tortilla onto the plate.
- Gently slide the tortilla back into the skillet, uncooked side down. Cook for another 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Carefully slide the tortilla onto a serving plate. Let cool slightly before cutting into wedges.
- Serve warm or cold. Enjoy!
