Air Fryer Spanish Tortilla Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse potato cubes and put them into a bowl with cold water to soak for about 10 minutes.
• Preheat an air fryer to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).
• Drain the potatoes and pat dry. Transfer to a bowl and toss with olive oil. Put them into the air fryer basket.
• Cook for 18 minutes. Raise the temperature to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Shake the basket. Add leek and shake basket again. Cook until leek has softened, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk eggs, Pecorino Romano cheese, salt, and pepper together in a bowl and pour into a 6-inch, nonstick cake pan. Mix in cooked potatoes and leek. Set cake pan into the air fryer basket. Cook until tortilla has browned on top and the middle no longer jiggles, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from the air fryer and cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with Italian parsley before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat. Add the potato slices and cook until they are just tender. Drain and reserve.
• Meanwhile, in a medium nonstick saute pan, heat the olive oil and add the onions. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and cook the onions until they are soft and starting to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Drop in the sliced chorizo and the garlic and cook until the sausage starts to brown. Remove the pan from heat.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs until they are light yellow in color. Stir in the milk, green onions, and Cheddar and combine until incorporated. Adjust the seasonings with salt and black pepper. Add the chorizo mixture and potatoes to the bowl and stir gently. Return the entire mixture back to the saute pan. Put the pan in the oven and bake until the eggs set, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the tortilla rest in the pan 10 minutes before inverting it. Using a large clean plate as an aid, flip the tortilla over and slide it out onto a large cutting board. Slice the tortilla into wedges and arrange on serving dishes. Serve it warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Put a large non-stick frying pan on a low heat. Cook the onion slowly in the oil and butter until soft but not brown - this should take about 15 mins. Meanwhile, peel the tomatoes (if using) by scoring the skins with a cross, putting them in a bowl and pouring over just-boiled water. Drain the water after 2-3 mins and the skins will peel away easily. You can then coarsely grate them.
• Add the potatoes to the pan, then cover and cook for a further 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally to make sure they fry evenly. When the potatoes are soft and the onion is shiny, crush 2 garlic cloves and stir in, followed by the beaten eggs.
• Put the lid back on the pan and leave the tortilla to cook gently. After 20 mins, the edges and base should be golden, the top set but the middle still a little wobbly. To turn it over, slide it onto a plate and put another plate on top, turn the whole thing over and slide it back into the pan to finish cooking.
• Once cooked, transfer to a plate and serve the tortilla warm or cold, scattered with the chopped parsley. To accompany the tortilla, take slices of warmed baguette, stab all over with a fork and rub with the remaining garlic, pile on the grated tomatoes and season with sea salt and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onion, paprika, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the onions are soft and just starting to turn brown, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar until absorbed. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
• Whisk together the eggs, 1/2 cup of water and 1 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl. Add the potato chips and cooled onions and stir to combine. Let sit for a few minutes.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat, then add the potato and egg mixture and cook, until the bottom and the sides set and are a light golden brown, about 3 minutes (use a rubber spatula to help pull and peek around the sides). Transfer to the oven and bake until set, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly in the pan, then slide out onto a cutting board and cut into 12 wedges. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Fry the two cloves of garlic in oil until the oil is nice and fragrant (about 3 minutes). Remove garlic from oil and discard the garlic.
• Add onion to the skillet. Season with a little salt and pepper. Cook onion about 5 minutes, or until translucent and soft, stirring occasionally.
• Add diced, cooked potatoes to skillet. (This is an ideal use for leftover potatoes, if you have them, or you can boil some taters up just for this occasion.)
• Stir to combine potatoes and onion, and then let cook 5 to 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent browning. At some point in the cooking process, you will want to help yourself to little potato to test your seasonings, and then add more salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour beaten eggs over potato mixture. Shake the pan to distribute the eggs nice and evenly. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 6 minutes on one side, or until the sides of the tortilla come away cleanly and are a little brown. NOTE: if you like yours really brown and slightly more authentic, cook it on medium.
• And now, the flip! Invert a plate on top of the skillet and carefully turn your tortilla out. Then VERY CAREFULLY slide the tortilla back into the pan uncooked side down and cook for another 6 minutes.
• Turn out tortilla onto another plate and cut into wedges. It can be served hot or cold, and makes great leftovers.

Steps:

• Use a large non stick pan for the first part of preparation and a 9" non stick pan for the final preparation.
• In large pan, layer potato, onion slices, olive oil and coarse salt to taste.
• Cook over medium heat, lifting and turning the potatoes/onion occasionally, until they are tender but not brown.
• Don't be afraid if they brown a little, you want them to be cooked.
• The potatoes will remain separated, not in a "cake".
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl beat the eggs with a fork until they are slightly foamy.
• Let stand until potatoes are done.
• Remove the potatoes from the skillet and drain them in a colander, reserving about 3 tablespoons of the oil.
• Add the drained potato/onions to the beaten eggs while the potatoes are still hot.
• Press the potatoes down into the eggs so they are completely covered.
• Let mixture stand for 15 minutes.
• Heat two tablespoons of the reserved oil in the 9" pan.
• Add the potato/egg mixture to the pan rapidly spreading evenly with a pancake turner.
• Move the pan around and shake once in a while to evenly brown the mixture and keep it from sticking.
• You can use the edge of the pancake turner (or a fork) as the mixture sets to form the sides to a more vertical orientation away from the sides of the pan.
• Once the mixture is brown (this is the tricky part) place a large plate upside down over the pan.
• Turn the pan upside down, add a little more of the reserved oil, then slide the uncooked side of the potato/eggs back into the pan.
• Continue cooking until browned.
• Flipping the tortilla two or three more times will help give it shape.
• Once cooked, allow to cool several hours and enjoy!
• Cut into one inch pieces and serve as appetizer with toothpicks.
