Tortilla Espanola ~ A Hidden Gem of Spanish Cuisine

Tortilla Espanola, also known as Spanish omelette, is a traditional Spanish dish typically made with eggs, potatoes, and onions. It’s a simple yet delicious dish that can be served as a side dish or even as a main course. It’s a great way to add something different to your Fire & Rice paella party and is sure to be a hit with your guests.

When the Fire & Rice team preps the Tortilla Espanola for your paella party, they make sure that they use the highest quality ingredients.  Farm fresh eggs, high quality potatoes, onions,  Extra Virgin Olive Oil, sea salt, & they add a hint of fresh thyme for a light background flavour.  

The chefs will cut the potatoes into even size pieces, slice the onion, and then simmer the potatoes and onion in the Extra Virgin Olive Oil.  They will cook the mixture until the potatoes are fork tender.  Then they will drain the potato and onion mixture and add the egg, salt, & thyme to bind the mixture.  

Next they will cook the tortilla in an omelette pan, slowly roasting the tortilla on one side then flipping it over to brown on the other side.  Once the tortilla has browned on both sides it is removed from the heat and reserved for service.
