Spanish omelette or potato omelette recipe

The potato omelette is one of the most popular recipes in Spain, there are many variants of preparation, but it can be said that there are two types of Spanish, those who eat the tortilla with onion and those who eat the tortilla without onion. I like it much more with onion.

The Spanish omelette is consumed both as a main dish and as a "Tapa" in good company, and in the north-central part of the country also as breakfast.

Keep in mind that the Spanish omelette improves when it is from the day before. And it is consumed both hot and cold.

It is usually accompanied by mayonnaise or aioli sauce.
