As a spaniard, this is the best Tortilla video i've seen in english. Congrats Kenji! No complaints from me other than a slight remark about the potato cut which I completely understand. That's the type of cut restaurants usually use because it's faster. Most people would only cook it like that if they were in a rush, but usually what we do is cut them in thin wedges, kind of like what you did with the carrots the other day where you cut a small wedge/slice and turn it 45º before cutting again. Usually done by moms or grandmas with a pairing knife by repeatedly turning the potato on their hand as they cut!

[@JKenjiLopezAlt]

Ah - I’ve only ever had it in restaurants. That’s good to know!

[@teuffelowo]

@@JKenjiLopezAlt Omar Allibhoy shows the technique Just Tamy is talking about, in his Chorizo and Potato Stew video. He also has a Tortilla Española video but he doesn't cut it like that on it.

[@wolfing]

you can also use the peeler to cut the potato very thinly, so it yields a bigger tortilla and they fry faster, although i guess the time you cut on frying is time you spend on peeling

[@alvarorodriguez1592]

I consider I do a quite good tortilla, but the height of this one is a merit in itself! Your tortilla skills are impressive! On the topic of potato cutting, every little master has his little book of tricks. I mix tiny cubes with bigger chunks that were half cut half torn, just to give different textures, and make more potato go into one pan. Probably the videorecipe you , Kenji, could learn the most from would be gipsy chef’s tortilla, just because the procedure he follows is very different, and quite fast at solving the issue of tortilla. Kudos! Keep sharing your impressive skills!

[@aydensimpson6337]

I'm the youngest child in my family, and my mom likes to call my siblings and I her "little eggs". When Kenji said that thing about always regretting the last egg, I damn near started crying while laughing.

[@alfonsohernandezmolina6890]

I don't know if someone else already pointed this out, but if you let the mixture sit in the bowl for at least half hour before dumping onto the pan you'll make the potatoes absorb some of the egg (as well as partially cook it), getting a better final texture and managing to not have to cook it for so long in order for the interior not to be liquidy. You'll achieve a creamier texture in less time on the pan.

[@harryhenry3053]

As a Spaniard, and (self-appointed) tortilla critic, a couple things: - If you like your tortilla the next day at room temperature, don't cook it for so long. The runny egg will continue to cook whilst it's out of the pan, and eventually congeal when it's left to cool at room temperature. Your tortilla the next morning looked a bit dry and without that same 'custardy egg' that you had when cooked the night before. - The optimal instrument to help with flipping the tortilla, is a plate that fits just inside the walls of the pan. The problem with using a lid (or anything else) that's wider than the pan is that it can slide very easily whilst flipping the tortilla. With the right lid/pan combination, and with practice, it can definitely be done consistently. But for people who might make this every now and again, having a plate that fits just inside the pan is more reliable. Would love to see videos of any other Iberian dishes, great content! From Cordoba, Spain.

I've never seen anyone add the onions this late to a tortilla. We either add them along with the potatoes or even before to get a bit of browning. Either way it looks really good!

In Spain, we strain the oil from the potatoes/onions before putting it into the egg mixture. This strained oil is then kept, and used again when cooking the next tortilla (which is usually the next day). The flavour from the tortilla fillings (potatoes/onions/peppers/whatever..) stays in the oil and amplifies the overall flavour.

[@mrwaltermathews]

He didn't use nearly enough oil to begin with.

[@YoElementalGPU]

You did justice to the tortilla de patata. There's a heated debate in Spain about onion or no onion, but I'm definitely team onion. Personally, I like my potatos and onion to go a bit softer, I cut them thinner so it's easier for that, and I prefer hot and not room temp (it's also really difficult to not eat it right away...). Good job Kenji!

[@bertv1205]

So simple (some skills required) so cost effective (Costco olive oil works great!) and gets better when it is room temp! I cannot thank you enough Kenji!!

[@mok0s1]

Just one thing, from a Spaniard. Its not too much egg, just leave the mixture rest for 15-30 mins. You will see it ends thickening up, and you no longer have that runny mixture. And in Spain we use to top the tortillas with all sorts of things. You can try, tuna-mayo, jam and cheese, we event have a BLT sandwich version with tortilla instead of bread.

To help loosen your tortilla from the pan, give it the ollllllll’ tappa-tappa. Notice that if you tappa more than once, now you’ve made tapas.

[@rodrigotoledano8201]

Hello, greetings from Spain: I see two thing we don't usually do, but you know, every man does tortilla on his own way so, I recommend you to fry the onion as the time of potatoes so the oils gets the onion flavour and also the onion would get softer. Also I see you go with high heat, I don't recommend that because, actually, you want to confit the potatoe, not getting to brown. When you drop the mixture into the eggs you mush use some kind of strainer, you drop so much oil on that, and too much olive oil can be unpleasant for the flavour. Sorry about my English hope you understand it anyways and nice video!

Wonderful video, Kenji, thank you. My mother slices the potatoes very thin and cooks the potatoes and onions slowly in plenty of olive oil until they are both translucent. The result is a very delicate texture that is admittedly not the most traditional but of course I prefer it :-) And definitely you want some moisture inside even after it cools down. Big thumbs up to your version though, it looks very authentic.

Amazing Kenji! Spanish food doesn’t get much love aside from tapas.

Another thing is that you can make it with sweet potatoes or add zucchini.

Soooo the basic requirement of a sharp knife is it's ability to hold and form micro serrations. Certain steel formulations lend themselves to better edge retention or finer crystalline structure allowing for a very small but very sharp micro serration (razor blades).

[@germandizbarros3044]

That “tortilla española” looks amazing, good job. My personal preference is onionless, a smaller potatoe cut and of course a little “jamon iberico” cooked with the potatoes. In Spain we are about 47 million people. I am sure that each single one of them has their own tortilla recepie.

And none of us cooks jamón iberico under any circunstances, you animal. And if its onionless is not a Spanish tortilla. Its a fritatta or whatever you want to call it. Tortilla has 4 ingredients: potato, AOVE, onion and eggs.

we spanish are very nitpicky about how our food is made in foreign countries, specially with tortilla, but I can tell this is a proper spanish tortilla. The only thing unfamiliar for me is the pepper on the egg but it fits well. Also cooking it the day before is a good move since letting it rest can even improve the flavor in some cases. btw on a side note yeah it's not rare to add some extra ingredients, just remember they are _extra_

Oxo is a great company. One of the few that still listens to their ID department.
