Author: Siddhi Shirsat // Category: Breakfast Items, Egg Dishes, Spanish Dishes

Spanish omelette or tortilla de patatas is a typical Spanish dish consisting of an egg omelette with fried potatoes. Frequently it also includes onion , spring onion depending on region or taste.I like this dish from before and i modify it by adding and changing its ingredients.This is my most favourite version in which i add mushroom, bellpeppers etc. Its a very simple recipe yet tasty:-))

INGREDIENTS:

4 eggs

1 cup chopped onion

1/4 cup chopped green bellpeppers

3/4 cup chopped mushrooms

1/2 cup finely diced potatoes

3-4 table spoon milk(optional)

1 tea spoon pepper powder

1/2 tea spoon termeric

olive oil

salt

METHOD:

Heat a pan and add little oil.Add chopped onions and saute them till soft.Now add the diced potatoes and saute them for 2 mins.Now close the lid and let them get cooked for 2-3 mins.Saute them till they turn light brown.

Now add chopped capsicum and saute for 2-3 mins.Now finally add sliced mushrooms and cook for 1 min.Add little salt and turmeric and saute more for 2-3 mins.By now mushrooms must have also got cooked well.
