Steps
- 1Heat 1/2 cup olive oil in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, then add thinly sliced potatoes and onion.
- 2Cook gently for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are very tender but not browned; drain off most of the olive oil, reserving a tablespoon in the pan.
- 3While potatoes cook, whisk eggs with salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- 4Add the cooked potato and onion mixture to the whisked eggs, stirring to combine thoroughly, and let sit for 5 minutes.
- 5Pour the egg and potato mixture back into the skillet with the reserved olive oil, spreading evenly.
- 6Cook over medium-low heat for 10-15 minutes, until the edges are set and golden and the top is mostly set.
- 7Place a large plate over the skillet, invert the tortilla onto the plate, then slide it back into the skillet to cook the other side for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown; slide onto a clean plate and serve warm or at room temperature.
