Steps:
- For the tortilla:
- 1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, arrange the onion and potatoes in a flat layer and cover with 1/2 cup olive oil. Cook the vegetables, gently stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender but not browned, 7 to 9 minutes.
- 2. Drain the cooked vegetables in a colander set over a bowl until cooled. (The oil collected in the bowl can be used later in the recipe or for another preparation.)
- 3. Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt. Add the potato mixture to the skillet in a flat layer and then pour the eggs over top. Cook the eggs, pressing the edges into the center as they begin to cook. Once the omelet is set enough, gently shake the pan to keep it from sticking on the bottom. Continue cooking until almost completely set, 6 to 8 minutes. Slide the omelet out onto a large dinner plate and invert it back into the pan to finish cooking the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more.
- 4. Slide the finished omelet onto a large serving plate and let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature with Romesco sauce.
- For the romesco sauce:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Arrange the almonds, hazelnuts, bread, and garlic in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast until ingredients are aromatic and lightly browned, 7 to 9 minutes. Set aside to cool. Set the oven to broil.
- 2. Place the peppers and tomatoes cut-side down onto an oiled baking sheet. Broil until the skins of the vegetables are evenly charred and the flesh is tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately transfer the vegetables to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let cool enough to handle. Peel and discard the skins from the vegetables and transfer the flesh to the jar of a blender.
- 3. Add the cooled nuts, bread, and garlic to the blender along with the vinegar, parsley, paprika, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Blend until smooth, adjusting the consistency as needed with olive oil to create a pourable sauce, and serve.
SPINACH, BACON AND POTATO OMELET: TORTILLA DE PAPA Y CARNE DE CERDO CON ESPINACA
Steps:
- Preheat the broiler.
- Arrange the bacon on a baking sheet in a single layer. Place under the broiler, cook for 4 minutes, remove from the oven and flip each piece to its opposite side. Place back under the broiler and cook until crisp. Remove from the baking sheet and drain on 3 paper towels. Set aside.
- Boil the potatoes in 2 to 3 cups of water until tender. Drain and set aside.
- In a 12-inch nonstick oven proof saute pan heat the olive oil and butter on medium heat. Add the sofrito and stir-fry until golden brown. Add the potatoes and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste. Beat the eggs until fluffy and add the spinach, mix well.
- Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and shake the pan a bit while the eggs begin to set. Using a heat resistant spatula pull the egg mixture from the sides of the pan slightly tipping the pan in the same direction allowing the eggs to fill up the space. Repeat 2 or 3 more times going around entire pan. Place the pan under the broiler for 10 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Cut into wedges and serve with warm crusty bread or whole-grain toast!

Tips:
- For a fluffy omelet, whisk the eggs lightly with a fork or whisk, being careful not to overbeat them.
- Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet to cook the omelet. This will help prevent it from sticking.
- Cook the omelet over medium heat. This will help it cook evenly without burning.
- Don't flip the omelet too soon. Wait until the bottom is set and the edges are starting to brown.
- When flipping the omelet, use a spatula to gently lift the edges and then flip it over in one quick motion.
- If you are adding fillings to the omelet, do so after the eggs have set but before they are completely cooked.
- Fold the omelet in half or thirds before serving.
Conclusion:
Omelets are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of fillings and toppings. With a little practice, you can make perfect omelets every time.
