Spanish tortilla is an olive oil-packed potato and onion omelet that is one of those dishes everyone should have in their back pocket. It's fast, inexpensive, infinitely variable, and is great served immediately or at room temperature later on. Make one at night and you've got zero-work breakfast the next morning, as well as something to pick at and snack on all day long.
Actually, I'm going to go have the last bite right now.
PLEASE READ!
The coronavirus has hit many folks hard, including first responders and hospital workers, individuals and families who were already food insecure, and service industry employees who are, for the large part, currently out of a job.
My goal is to help fix both these problems in the best way I know how to contribute: organizing people, and cooking food.
If you would like to donate to our free meal fund, head to www.toasttab.com/wursthall/ where you can buy a boxed meal for someone in need. These boxes go directly to the frontline workers and food insecure families who have been hit hardest by the coronavirus pandemic. They also allow me to hire back my kitchen team to cook and pack these meals (in a safe, clean way). So far we have served nearly 500 meals, and the number goes up every week.
If you would like to make a monthly recurring donation of any size, head to my Patreon account at / kenjilopezalt . 100% of the proceeds go directly to the free meal fund. You can also help by buying my books at bookshop.org/shop/kenjilopezalt where 100% of my sales commission goes to the free meal fund, and an additional 10% goes to independent book stores around the country.
Finally, stay safe. Here is my guide to food safety and the coronavirus, written with the consultation of virologists, food safety experts, and infectious disease specialists, and kept up to date as new research emerges: www.seriouseats.com/2020/03/f...

As a spaniard, this is the best Tortilla video i've seen in english. Congrats Kenji! No complaints from me other than a slight remark about the potato cut which I completely understand. That's the type of cut restaurants usually use because it's faster. Most people would only cook it like that if they were in a rush, but usually what we do is cut them in thin wedges, kind of like what you did with the carrots the other day where you cut a small wedge/slice and turn it 45º before cutting again. Usually done by moms or grandmas with a pairing knife by repeatedly turning the potato on their hand as they cut!

I consider I do a quite good tortilla, but the height of this one is a merit in itself! Your tortilla skills are impressive! On the topic of potato cutting, every little master has his little book of tricks. I mix tiny cubes with bigger chunks that were half cut half torn, just to give different textures, and make more potato go into one pan. Probably the videorecipe you , Kenji, could learn the most from would be gipsy chef’s tortilla, just because the procedure he follows is very different, and quite fast at solving the issue of tortilla. Kudos! Keep sharing your impressive skills!

So id love to know how they maintain their own personal kitchens cooking the way they do!

In Spain, we strain the oil from the potatoes/onions before putting it into the egg mixture. This strained oil is then kept, and used again when cooking the next tortilla (which is usually the next day). The flavour from the tortilla fillings (potatoes/onions/peppers/whatever..) stays in the oil and amplifies the overall flavour.

Wow, I just made this and it's so good! I wasn't expecting it to be so flavorful considering the only 3 main ingredients, 4 if you include olive oil lol. It had a really great texture any it had a little sweetness to it. I'll be making this again. Love u kenji

Amazing Kenji! Spanish food doesn’t get much love aside from tapas. If you want to make it lighter on your stomach drain the oil from potatoes and onions before adding it to the egg mixture (then use a bit of that oil to coat the pan). Another thing is that you can make it with sweet potatoes or add zucchini.

Loving the torilla ! A nice twist on something i know already. I´m from nothern Germany and we do it a similar way, just not as much oil, but we add bacon cubes. It´s called "Bauernfrühstück" which roughly translates to farmers Breakfast.

damn thats a nice knife kenji, we used to do this dish a lot back when the restaurant i work at was under construction so we could prep them in the morning, finish them a good bit before service started and then serve them warm-ish with some salads and bread

You did justice to the tortilla de patata. There's a heated debate in Spain about onion or no onion, but I'm definitely team onion. Personally, I like my potatos and onion to go a bit softer, I cut them thinner so it's easier for that, and I prefer hot and not room temp (it's also really difficult to not eat it right away...). Good job Kenji!

here at home (my grandparents are from spain and owned a mildly recognized restaurant for years) we also add red bell pepper and sometimes just a tiny bit of spanish chorizo colorado (it's really invasive, so if you add too much you may end up screwing the whole thing up) when feeling fAnCy . People usually eat it as a side dish, usually to go with meat, but here at home we have it as the main dish, and salad on the side. if you happen to have any question about spanish quisine, dont think twice about asking me. Edit: grammar

Wonderful video, Kenji, thank you. My mother slices the potatoes very thin and cooks the potatoes and onions slowly in plenty of olive oil until they are both translucent. The result is a very delicate texture that is admittedly not the most traditional but of course I prefer it :-) And definitely you want some moisture inside even after it cools down. Big thumbs up to your version though, it looks very authentic.

Haven’t made this in 6 months. Unfortunately, we moved and my special Pan is packed in storage and I can’t get to it. Your lid trick may be the answer. We have it for dinner and the rest for lunch the next day. So good!

Guess what I am going to cook today! Thanks fot the inspiration. My mom lived in Spain for three years and this dish has been a family staple forever. She found the traditional taste too boring and we always added garlic. The dish is not well known among Germans and our family version with garlic was the center of attention at parties quite often. Try it with garlic, put in some spinach or half dried tomatoes and bell peppers - just make it!

When I flip, I learned to do it over a sheet trey catching any of the dropped egg then putting it back into the tortilla. Usually only a few tbsp but its a nice trick

When I was growing up my family made a modified version of this. we'd dice up the potatoes and fry them in a similar manner, then toss in the onions when they were pretty much good to go, then add in the eggs but we'd scramble it up. My mom always thought I was weird when I said I thought it tasted better when it was cooled down.
