Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup Spanish chorizo, diced
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the potatoes and cook until they are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chorizo, onion, and garlic. Cook until the chorizo is browned and the onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Add the cooked potatoes to the eggs and mix well.
- Pour the egg and potato mixture into the skillet with the chorizo and onion. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
- Place a large plate over the skillet and carefully flip the tortilla onto the plate. Slide the tortilla back into the skillet and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set.
- Slide the tortilla onto a serving plate and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
