Tricks to prepare a perfect potato omelette

- It is very important that the potatoes are done over very low heat for at least 20 minutes, so that they remain very soft. If we make them over high heat they will be hard on the outside, more like French fries and will not give the tortilla the right texture.
- Another trick for a perfect potato omelette is let the mixture of the potatoes with the egg rest for 15-20 minutesso that they soak well and take on flavor.
- Some people separate the yolks from the whites beating the latter until stiff and pouring a splash of milk or beer to make it more fluffy. first the yolks are beaten and mixed with all the ingredients, then the whites are incorporated with enveloping movements. you can also cast a teaspoon of yeast to make it even more fluffy.

- Which the ideal potato for the omelette? The one with yellow skin and white meat
- A trick so that the tortilla does not stick to the pan is to cover the bottom of the pan with salt and fry. Once the salt is browned, we remove it with kitchen paper (careful not to burn ourselves) and we can now fry without fear of our tortilla sticking.
How to turn the potato omelette

Without a doubt, when you make your first potato omelette, one of the scariest things is the dreaded return to the omelette. But if you follow a few tips you will become a true professional of the Spanish tortilla:
- It is important that your pan is non-stick, because if the tortilla has stuck to the pan, it will be impossible for you to do it well. So buy a good one nonstick skilletwith the right size and more vertical sides, so that your tortilla takes the perfect shape and you can make it thicker if you like them better that way.
- there are also the special pans for potato omelette which are two and will allow you to turn the tortilla around without problem. With them you will become a master, personally I use this model and I love it:

- 2 separate frying pans or double frying pan, all in one: quality set made of cast aluminium,…
- Conceived to have good strength and good resistance to deformation due to its…
- It is important to make sure before turning the tortilla that has completely dislodged from the background. It’s advisable move the pan back and forth, separating it a little from the fire, until we verify that the bottom is detached. Once we see that our tortilla slides through the pan, it is time to turn it over.
- Take a flat plate larger than the diameter of the pan you are using, supports the palm of the hand firmly over it, and squeezing it onto the pan, it rotates quickly and smoothly on the plate.
- Carefully slide the tortilla back onto the pan., you can help yourself with a spatula, to curdle the other side of the tortilla. Then follow the same process of moving the pan to know when you can remove it from the heat. To remove it, follow the same process with the plate as before. In this case it will be easier since the egg will already be set.
