INSTRUCTIONS
Brown potatoes in olive oil. Drain. Whip egg yolks a little bit, add all other ingredients except egg whites. Mix thoroughly. Beat egg whites until about double in volume (a foamy liquid) . Fold egg whites gently into rest of mixture. Pour into a buttered, pre-heated omelet pan. Cook gently until almost set. Keep sliding the pan back and forth so that the omelet doesn't stick. Remove pan from stovetop. Place under pre-heated broiler. Cook until top is browned to your liking. Remove from oven, slide omelet onto plate and eat. Notes: This is a Spanish dish. Note that in Spain (also in Venezuela) a tortilla is an egg dish, not like a Mexican tortilla. Use only as much olive oil as needed to brown the potatoes.
