There's nothing too fancy about this rustic Spanish style omelet, just lots of hearty goodness from crispy fried potatoes and onions. Chopped tomatoes and green onions lend even more flavor and color.

SPANISH OMELETTE (TORTILLA ESPAñOLA)
Five humble ingredients express rich flavors in this classic Spanish dish. Onions not only caramelize in olive oil, but infuse it, creating a savory base for cooking potatoes and eggs. Slice it pizza-style for a shareable breakfast or tapa.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Using a knife, peel the onion (discard onion skin in a bowl for easy clean-up), then remove both ends and cut in a medium dice. Heat a non-stick, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil followed by chopped onions and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir and cook until the onions are soft and lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Stir the onions occasionally as they cook.
- Slice the potato (leave peel on), then dice the same size as the onions (cut away and discard any blemishes on the potato). Set aside. Crack eggs into a bowl, whisk and set aside. When onions are lightly caramelized, remove from heat. Place a strainer over a bowl and strain the onions from the oil, reserving oil. Set onions aside. Place oil back into the pan, turn heat to high until oil is slightly smoking, 2-3 minutes (hot oil will keep the potatoes from sticking). Add potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir and cook until potatoes are soft and golden brown, 7-8 minutes (test for doneness by tasting one!).
- Strain potatoes from the oil, reserving oil. Add potatoes to the onions and keep the skillet warm over low heat (It's important to have no trace of onions or potatoes in the skillet or the omelette will stick). Stir beaten eggs into the potato onion mixture. Turn heat to high, add about 1 tablespoon of the oil back to the pan. When the oil begins to smoke, add egg mixture. Using a rubber spatula gently move the eggs around in the pan to distribute the heat. Turn heat to low and let the omelette set around the edges, 1-2 minutes. Transfer omelette to the oven. It will bake a total of 4-5 minutes. First, to set the eggs, 2- 2 ½ minutes.
- When the omelette is set all over, remove from the oven to flip and cook on the other side. Shake slightly to make sure it isn't sticking to the sides. Using a rubber spatula, gently remove the omelette from the skillet onto a plate. Cover with the other plate and flip over. Using a rubber spatula, gently place back into the pan, bottom-side up and back into the oven, about 2 more minutes.
- Remove omelette from oven. Using a rubber spatula, slide onto a plate. Serve.

Turkey chorizo was my inspiration for this omelette. I had one sausage left and decided to create something special for my husband's breakfast. You can add other veggies to this basic recipe using whatever scraps you have in your fridge.

Steps:
- To soften the potatoes you have a few choices, microwave is the quickest (1-2 minutes), steam (4 minutes) or boil (6 -7 minutes) until just cooked through and drain well.
- In a pan, add the oil on a low to medium heat and cook the onions until they soften (2 minutes).
- Add the peppers and potatoes to the pan, season with salt and pepper and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Add the egg mixture into a jug and beat with a fork. Add the chives and season this with a generous amount of pepper and a pinch of salt.
- Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture in to the pan. Stir to even out the vegetables in the mixture.
- Cook for 6-8 minutes with the lid on until almost set and golden brown underneath.
- To finish put the frying pan under the grill leaving the handle outside the oven. After 1 or 2 minutes your dish is good to go.
- The beauty about this dish is that it can be eaten cold or kept and re-heated at a later time, while still tasting just as great.

Steps:
- Finely slice the onions and chop the red pepper, removing the seeds. Cut the potatoes into roughly ½ cm slices.
- Heat a knob of butter in a medium (about 24cm) frying pan over a low heat and cook gently for 10 - 15 until starting to go brown, add the peppers and cook for a further 5 mins.
- Put the potatoes in a steamer over boiling water for 10 - 12 mins to soften. If you don't have a steamer, put in a saucepan, cover with boiling water and simmer gently for around 8 - 10 mins until just cooked through and drain well.
- Break the eggs into a jug and beat with a fork, season with a generous grind of pepper and a pinch of salt. Use scissors to snip the chives into small pieces and stir in.
- Heat the grill. Add a little more butter to the frying pan and add the potatoes. Pour over the egg mixture. Cook for 15 mins until almost set and golden brown underneath - you can use a fish slice to lift the omelette up and check. Put the frying pan under the grill. Make sure the handle is outside the oven as it will become very hot and can burn. Cook for a further minute or two and serve.

- Scrape the new potatoes or leave the skins on, if you prefer. Cut them into thick slices. Chop the onion.
