I am a guy who spent most of his teenage and adult life cooking, instead of going out, but at some point, fell a victim of habit by regurgitating the same recipes over and over. Thank you for resparking my interest in cooking and discovering new tastes! I now cook for my family every Sunday ~

[@RafadelPozo94]

Thank you for spreading the Spanish culture and make people be interested in it!! There're a huge variety of tapas, more than imaginable, and also more than one way to make them (although a truly Spanish tortilla is not meant to be cooked in the oven, that's the easy way! Hahaha). Again, I love this video, thanks!

[@guillermovidal4893]

As a Spanish chef... Well done. I see in some comments people saying that... the Spanish tortilla never goes to the oven (false, sometimes the Spanish tortilla goes in the oven, a hundred years ago it was easier to do it in the oven) And those potatoes need more olive oil!!! There are a lot of recipes of chorizo with honey and some kind of wine, cider or others, so... well done with that to. Thanks a lot for this video of Spanish tapas

[@NinaNinaNB]

I'm so glad about your comment, especially coming from a person who actually knows Gracias ☺

[@JackR772]

I thought the same, not enough oil!

Can people stop getting their knickers in a twist over the 'traditional' way to make Spanish food. Clearly this is just Donal's version. Tbh it would be a bit boring if he went exactly by the book. He's being creative and original. You should be happy. Great video Donal! Really enjoyed it! 👌🏻😊

[@juanQuedo]

most comments are because he cooked the tortilla in the oven which makes it a frittata, an italian dish. Donald's version could be the addition of veggies,including the rosemary in the almonds or whatever you want. Different ways of cooking produce different dishes. I'm sure that wherever you live there is a "famous" dish and it would be another different thing if you cooked it in a different way.

[@noorfatima8930]

Donald, Whatever you cook is just so fantastic! You are my one of the most favourite chefs! Love you! ♥♥

[@felicitaspizarro]

Soo good Donal!!! Loved the chorizo tapa!

[@evgeniinikitin8843]

I absolutely love your channel man. I came across it a couple days ago, but I've already cooked couple of your dishes, they turned out amazing and were really easy to make. Love your positive energy too. Keep it up and thanks from Russia!

[@aburningpromise]

Spaniards on my mom's side...they can be very snobbish when it comes to food...yet this looks so good, it makes me want to try it....the only thing I will add is more olive oil to the tortilla as well as Spanish olives to the board...also where's the wine?!!!! :)

[@mslisacecilia]

I'm super impressed with your multitasking skills! that's hard to do in the kitchen but I adored your platter. it came out so beautifully!

[@_innerpeacekeeper]

your kitchen is goals!

[@dannysimion]

I love your variations of spanish tapas and there are so much out there. They look really tasty! I like the serving of the board approach. So rustic. :)

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it :)

[@reveenaskitchen]

Wow, that looks absolutely fabulous! Thanks for sharing :)

[@carmenegger4496]

Amazing tapas ideas!! Can't wait to try them!!

[@donalskehan]

[@estelaVillar-]

I'm Spanish and I think your way of making Spanish tortilla is healthier and it looks very good. Well done!

[@mischellepravina9580]

There are so many varieties! 🤩

[@danimarino5653]

Magnifico! Looks so wonderful!

[@donalskehan]

[@waltertal]

Woah that looks incredibly delish!

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@TheRoboCaterpillar]

I really want to make this! I went on an exchange in Spain a few years ago and could never recreate the tortillas, hadn't seen this oven hack before!

[@gungun8465]

😍 that thing looks delicious

[@jacquelinelombard5029]

The Chorizo braised in red wine was a hit ...beautiful quick and delicious tapas !

[@dhombios]

In North Spain it is also cooked with cider, being it equally amazing. Chorizo a la sidra cooked in wood fire is delicious

[@aquilestadeu]

Nice, creative and tasty! Great job.

[@donalskehan]

thank you :)

[@Bluemoon-vm4lg]

omg it's looks soo tasty and sooo delicious. creativity comes from ur mind.👌👌👌👏👏👏👏

[@classicmoments9433]

WoW I must have the recipe!!

[@RookieCook]

Yum! Looks great for a party.

[@Lagatabruja64]

This is a strange mixture of Italian (the frittata) and Middle Eastern (chickpeas, almonds, honey) food, cooked very differently from how we would normally cook in Spain. But it looks delicious and easy to make. Yum!!! Essential tips for real cocina española: More olive oil, less garlic/spices, good ingredients and keep it simple. Thanks for everything, Donal!

[@lovstoned23]

I love your "messy" style... Well done😊

[@donalskehan]

thank you :)

[@lidia5181]

Loved the red bell pepper addition, tho that tortilla cheat using the oven... nope. Next time give the flip a try! Keep it up! Xx

[@rishabhrai1157]

Love it!

[@donalskehan]

thank you!

[@PtolemyXVII]

Wow! Donal looks like he's spent some serious time in the sun! :) Potatoes look delicious!

[@donalskehan]

just back from holidays there! :)

[@HobbykochGourmet]

looks really delicious! 😎

[@donalskehan]

thank you!

[@TJCollado]

Hey Donald, I love your videos!Great music great talking throughout and of course delicious recipes.One comment about the tortilla, this is more like an Italian frittata. The way that the Spanish tortilla is cooked is completely different. Shoot me a message if you like to know more about it. Cheers

[@marini7714]

Just a few tips on the tortilla: let the potatos stay longer with the egg mixture, it should be a little dense when youput it on the pan. Also, instead of putting the tortilla in the oven, grab a plate, flip it in it and then put it down on the pan on the side not done. It's a bit messy but the result is wonderful :)

[@ninfav.332]

Yumii Delicious 👀✌Donal n the Chorizo :p 👌👏Super ♡ XX nice sunday!

[@donalskehan]

glad you liked it!

[@yahaira_f]

where did you get the baking pans for the almonds? everything looked yummy

[@Ellen_P]

I just love tapas👍👍🌻🌞

[@mahajaramillo498]

Look good!

[@rutbanos]

Although I usually love your videos, as a Spanish, I have to say that your recipe for tortilla is not at all like the real one. It is true that there is a different way to make tortilla in each house but it is more about the time of cooking or if you want to add onion or something else, but the steps of making it are always the same and you changed them, both in the potato making as in the tortilla itself. BTW, is chorizo and it looked pretty good.

[@Persianamir20]

Love the way you say potatoes

[@empowered_earthlings]

wow amazing video! I'll have to try this, even though I don't think I'm going to be as calm as you 😄

[@donalskehan]

you'll be fine :) it's well worth a try!

[@kkaddict]

The chorizo dish looks amazing! Gotta try that soon, thanks :)

[@donalskehan]

yeah it's super tasty!

[@shirleycastle5170]

looks very yummy

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@hanadiaash]

Looks delicious.. But what is the replacement for the red wine < i'm not alcoholic

[@cybermewt]

I'm not really sure who/where did you get this as 'typical tapas' from Spain, but here are a few tips from a group of fans of your videos: + Great pick of flavours! and of course the cheese and Serrano/Pata negra are really good picks and almost a MUST when preparing Tapas + The Chorizo with chickpeas is not that typical at least as tapas in most of Spain, I'd have gone with a 'Chorizo a la sidra' instead. Don't use honey and use cider instead of wine and let it reduce in the same way to get a 'Chorizo a la sidra' (typical all over the North of Spain) + The Almonds with smoked paprika are not that common in the whole Spain, but some people do have them as typical from their region. + Sorry but the Tortilla de patata is simply wrong, you prepared a Frittata (which is nice, but not a tortilla): Fry the potatos and onion slices with more oil, and take them out of the oil when they start browning. Let them rest a bit while you whisk the eggs (the paprika is not that common, although is allowed... people usually use a green paprika). After whisking the eggs, add a bit of salt and pepper, add the potatos/onion, give it a stir and let it rest for 15 minutes so the flavors mix completely in there. In middle-high fire put a pan with some oil... add the mixture and stir it just a bit so the tortilla "starts" coming together. When you feel comfortable with the consistency, turn around the tortilla with the help of a plate (careful) and let it finish in low fire for a few minutes (if you want a perfect tortilla and your eggs are new, you should aim for a point in which the inside part is still a little creamy and not really cooked). I hope it helps a bit :D nice video though!

[@anncummins4147]

Hi Donal Irish Ann living in Portugal. Can the Chorizo recipe be served cold? Thanks

[@catwu3935]

Oh My Goodness! you made an egg pizza!! :D looks fantastic!

[@dabisu]

Next time you should try to do some "Chocolate con churros y chorizo". Very popular here. Ok, time to eat my yogur de chorizo before going to sleep.

[@terryharvey3659]

omg i have to make this

[@QuiltingCrow]

that looks so yummy....

[@donalskehan]

well worth a try!

[@Evque]

Not shoritzo, say tchorisso❤ Beautiful recipe, thaaank you!

[@Lagatabruja64]

Good point, but sorry, not exactly... The Castillian Spanish pronunciation is "tcho-ree-tho". Not "tz" (totally made up by English speakers), not "ss" (South of Spain and America), but "TH" as in 'thought'.

[@Evque]

It's not a "point" - I know Spanish:) The point was actually - not to say "sh" in the beginning and "tz" in the end. Both are not correct. Regarding the correct ways - there are many, you know. South of America is quite big, in Mexico they say "ss".

[@CarmenGonzalez-ni6dn]

Evque se dice CHORIZO

[@Evque]

Carmen González, se escribe CHORIZO, pero dicen SS, no hay Z como la dicen los inglés - estaba explicando la manera de decir.

[@lindagoodwin6166]

Yummy......have you made a Spanish paella yet? If not I hope you do at some point in the future.

[@donalskehan]

will have to at some point :)

[@ItsArremsDayTodayBeauty]

hello Donal, I am a new subscriber but been watching you for 2 years now, starting when I was looking for recipe for pavlova... anyway you should try to make Spanish Bread... it's a Filipino bread... just to try it out.. you're probably not gonna be able to read this but I'm trying!!! great video!

[@jaimegarcia9408]

Is spanish bread . The flipino bread is quite.

[@chloehennessy306]

yay I'm early love your cooking

[@donalskehan]

Thank you :)

[@rafaelrivero1343]

Yum !

[@minuteman4199]

Those potatoes would have been beautiful deep fried. The chorizo recipe was nice, I;ll give that one a try.

[@kenomisan]

omg it's looks so good! should be illegal! mmm i'm so hungry rigth now

[@donalskehan]

haha you should give it a go :)

[@ThePibebazooka]

Lovely

[@donalskehan]

glad you like it!

[@lilyuen]

That apron is nice! Where did you get that Donal?

[@donalskehan]

thank you :) I ordered it from Australia! Cargocrew.com.au

[@otakupuschel-dq2eb]

You're a really good multitasker 😂😆👍👌

[@mariaRodriguez-br8pc]

¿Pero dónde se ha visto semejante barbaridad? Ni son tapas españolas, ni se le parecen. Un respeto a la gastronomía de nuestro país; hombre ya!!!

[@Ayyelos92]

your "tapas" seems delicious (in fact I'm from Spain and I've never seen the recipes you made but they seem cool eany way). Just a thing: we never coock tortilla in the oven. NEVER. This is like a kind of sin you've made. We allways cook spanish omelete in the pan. And, just another little detail: we use to cut the potatoes in cubes, not in the way you do. And, to be honest, you could have choose other tapas more representatives of our culture as 'ensaladilla rusa', 'gazpacho', 'croquetas', eany kind of 'pinxos' or things like that. Your recipes really sounds delicious, but I'm not sure if they are really typical of my country.

[@gharirabatool5890]

soo yummy

[@donalskehan]

really worth a try!

[@nganga4999]

Just add more olive oil while frying the sliced potatoes...overall was fine 👌😋

[@smaddhi1991]

Love the recipes except the tortilla... A Spanish tortilla never goes into the oven! You need to flip it! (Sorry, I'm protective of that dish xD)

[@alexcasablancasjorgensen2194]

Totally agree about that omelette in the oven... absolute NO! No one does that here in Spain...

[@FlowersInHisHair]

Oh please. I bet thousands of people use cheaty methods for tortilla.

[@smaddhi1991]

I am aware of that. However, what I'm trying to say is that in every spanish household I've been to (including my own) I always saw that a tortilla was flipped and I have never seen the cheaty method for a spanish tortilla in Spain. I was always tought what I mentioned in my initial comment. The only time I have seen the "cheaty method" was when people were cooking an italian frittata.

[@cybermewt]

There're ... but the result is not the same, what he cooked is a fritata (italian dish) so if you want to test the real tortilla, follow the instructions :)

[@JackR772]

You're protective of that dish? Are you insane?

[@PurpleJCAT1]

Yum! 😋👏

[@donalskehan]

thank you!

[@Theapplemaster1001]

What can we use instead of wine?

[@cathy6828]

Oh gosh, that chorizo dish is tempting me sooooo much to go back from being vegetarian... :'D absolutely love tapas in general tho

[@LaCremeBruleee]

What can I use instead of red wine?

[@pau_pico3]

+KingBones I'm spanish and of course it has eggs... -_-PD: very nice video

[@clarabarberosanchez665]

💜tortilla chorizo !!!

[@CatherineDupuis87]

You say "potatoes" the same way my Nana did (which is odd, because she was two generations removed from Ireland!)

[@DinukaGunaratne]

Dees NUTS Donald I got my Nuts LOL love the food thought !

[@indiralad7939]

im spanish and it looks very nice. And its not tschorisso is chorizo.

[@acrcreew]

Your spanish tortilla it's a bit different from the original one

[@MrBombe92]

What is the original one?

[@Jorge-tx1nz]

No garlic, no parsley, no red bell peppers... and we don't cook it in the oven. We cook it in the pan, flipping it with a plate.

[@MrBombe92]

cool I will try it, maybe I will add some bulgarian flavors to experiment like savory or thyme. Maybe thyme, but first I will make the traditional one that you said.

[@chanapolpimsen2647]

The original is always the best But i think his version is interesting also

[@robert111k]

+MrBombe92 Think that there is a lot of thyme all over Spain and nobody puts it in his tortilla. Maybe you should save your creativity for other purposes. Just a suggestion :).

[@kubobubo1]

Pls How to make donut recipe pls :D thanks

[@lairajackiesieras5285]

I'm spanish and I do not put my tortilla (omelette) into the oven and neither put so many seasoning... so you got creative I guess.

[@marinajimenez2639]

Tortilla has to be done in the stovetop... It is way better. An option, which I rather prefer, is to cut the potatoes in wedges, it turns out waaaay better.

[@sietelibras1652]

Una tortilla española no lleva pimienta, no se hace al horno y se fríe con mucho más aceite!! Parece más un pudding de patata que una tortilla!

[@shaggywaffle578]

How did u get the potatoes sliced like this?

[@donalskehan]

you can use a mandolin slicer if you have one!

[@miudien]

you posted this right when I arrived in Spain. How coincident is that? :3

[@donalskehan]

haha that's pretty cool!

[@Chiratalg]

Is there a way to get the potatoes so fine without a tool?

[@donalskehan]

you can carefully cut it by hand :)

[@elpunkyguarro]

Si eso es una tortilla española, yo no soy española entonces ;(

[@sofi88p]

Lo que eres es hartante.

[@elpunkyguarro]

+Sofi Fuentes Y tú una maleducada.

[@sofi88p]

elpunkyguarro Lo que sea, pero yo no voy comentando y criticando en videos nadamas porque no hacen las cosas como yo quiero. Quien hace eso? Oh, ups, tu!

[@elenaesp]

Opino lo mismo que +elpunkyguarro Eso no es una tortilla. Las patatas primero se fríen en abundante aceite y nunca se mete en el horno. Se le da la vuelta a la tortilla!!

[@elpunkyguarro]

+eleonoraespineira Justo a eso es a lo que me refería simplemente: a que él podrá pensar que lo es o lo está haciendo igual, pero no es una tortilla. Pero claro, últimamente hay gente tan sensible que se molesta cuando se dicen las cosas claramente, que ya no se puede ni comentar nada

[@ZainxIqbal]

Donal, what is your favorite color?

[@donalskehan]

Green :)

[@thebonvivant9027]

i love you!

[@forevayoung7849]

Can u make a nando's butterfly breast irish way?

[@indiegoo]

I would like to know what Omar Allhiboy think of these recipes :O

[@Pilusajaib]

i just love when he said potato hahah bodado~

[@donalskehan]

a few people have said that :)

[@donalskehan]

a few people have said that :)

[@topoftheworldmb]

I've never seen nobody adding garlic, pepper, red pepper, and parsley to the tortilla :S (I'm spanish) And of course not into the oven D:

[@ismamoreno5925]

That´s a fritatta not tortilla

[@jaimegarcia9408]

La fritata es una tortilla española. Es lo mismo. La tortilla española se puede hacer de 100 formas. Es muy versátil.

[@barbaratobio683]

what??@@jaimegarcia9408

[@jaimegarcia9408]

That frittata is quite that spanish tortilla,invented with introduction of the potato to america for the spanish.

[@jaimegarcia9408]

Isma, además lleva chorizo ibérico, que es un embutido español. Cómo va ser una frittata.

[@jaimegarcia9408]

Isma, iberian chorizo is a spanish saucesse, the spanish tortilla is most versátile, is with spinach , manchego, pepper, etc. That is not frittata, is a spanish tortilla with iberian chorizo, is a symbol to spanish cuisine.

[@jetabone46]

It's nice to see other ways to cook Spanish cuisine but I think you should have said that the original tortilla is made of potatoes, onions and eggs. Imagine a French chef preparing a traditional Irish dish adding ingredients that doesn't belong. Don't get me wrong because I like the way you cook.

[@benjidog1514]

When are you opening a restaurant?!

[@donalskehan]

Not in the plans for the moment! would love to in the future tho :)

[@wxb200]

Great video. BUT, Chorizo is not pronounced with a SH at the beginning, and not with an Italian Z like in Pizza. CHorr-EEE-So... Sorry, I was a linguist at one point.

[@kpplrfv5578]

That look f*** delicious but that tortilla looks more like a frittata. We don't put the tortilla in the heaven, we just flip it up and cook the other side in the pan.
