Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Courgette Tortilla Recipes

SPINACH & SWEET POTATO TORTILLA

Steps:

• Put the spinach in a large colander and pour over a kettleful of boiling water. Drain well and, when cooled a little, squeeze dry, trying not to mush up the spinach too much.
• Heat 3 tbsp oil in a 25cm non-stick pan with a lid, then sweat the onions for 15 mins until really soft but not coloured. Add another 3 tbsp oil and add the potatoes and garlic. Mix in with the onions, season well, cover and cook over a gentle heat for another 15 mins or so until the potatoes are very tender. Stir occasionally to stop them catching.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, tip in the cooked potato and onion, and mix together. Separate the spinach clumps, add to the mix and fold through, trying not to break up the potato too much.
• Add 2 tbsp more oil to the pan and pour in the sweet potato and egg mix. Cover and cook over a low-medium heat for 20 mins until the base and sides are golden brown and the centre has mostly set. Run a palette knife around the sides to stop it from sticking. 5 To turn the tortilla over, put a plate face down onto the pan, then flip it over. Slide the tortilla back into the pan and cook for a further 5-10 mins until just set and golden all over. (Don't worry if it breaks up a little on the edges as you're turning it - it will look perfect when it's cooked through and set.) Continue cooking on the other side until just set and golden all over. Again use a palette knife to release the tortilla from the sides. Allow to rest for 5 mins, then tip onto a board before cutting into wedges.

OVEN-ROASTED SWEET POTATO & COURGETTE TORTILLA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Tip the sweet potato slices, onion and courgette into a medium non-stick baking dish (ours was 18cm x 30cm x 4cm), drizzle with the olive oil, season and mix everything together. Bake for 30 mins, tossing the veg halfway. The sweet potatoes should be tender, the courgette a little charred and the onion softened.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and the crème fraîche together along with a pinch of seasoning. Pour the beaten egg mixture over the sweet potato, onion and courgette. Sprinkle over the manchego and put back in the oven for 25-30 mins until the tortilla is just set. Sprinkle over the chives and eat hot or cold with salad.
