Golden tortilla

Serves: 4
Cooking Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 1kg potatoes, peeled
  • 23ml (1½ tbsp) olive oil
  • 1 large (200g) onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves, sliced
  • 10 large eggs
  • 180ml (¾ cup) fresh cream
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

2

Place the potatoes in saucepan of cold water. Bring to the boil and cook until just tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, allow to cool completely and slice thinly.

3

Heat 15ml (1 tbsp) of the oil in a 20cm non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for a further 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

4

Add the remaining oil to the pan and place a layer of potatoes over the base. Top with a third of the onion mixture. Continue to alternately layer the potato and onion mixture, finishing with a layer of potato.

5

Whisk the eggs, cream, salt and pepper in a bowl and pour over the potato. Cook the tortilla in the oven until browned and cooked through, about 35 – 40 minutes.

6

Turn the tortilla out and slice to serve.
