The beloved potato-and-onion omelette of Spain: thick, tender and just-set in the middle. Wonderful warm, room temperature or in a sandwich.

    Cook the base — Heat 1 tbsp of the reserved oil in the pan over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook for 8 minutes, shaking the pan now and then, until the base and edges are set but the top is still soft.

    Flip and finish cooking — Slide the tortilla onto a plate, invert the pan over it, and flip it back into the pan to cook the other side for 3 minutes. Slide onto a board, rest 5 minutes, then cut into wedges.
