Spanish Tortilla Cooking Lesson
Learn Spanish with Julian - inside his kitchen - while he demonstrates the proper technique for Spanish Tortilla making! The Spanish Omelette or Tortilla Española is a traditional and popular dish in Spain. One of the pillars of Spanish cuisine and an essential element of tapas culture, it is a thick disk-shaped omelette made with eggs and potatoes, often including onion and sometimes other ingredients such as red peppers or chorizo sausage. It's usually served at room temperature as a tapa, as a snack, or in a bocadillo (a baguette sandwich). No tapas bar, café or cafetería in Spain can be without a Tortilla sitting on the bar, ready to be sliced into wedges and served as a tapa, pincho or raciòn. ¿Vamos a ver como se prepara?
