This isn't really a Spanish tortilla, but it surely does the trick, plus there isn't much cooking involved, you basically just have to prepare some stuff, stick it in the oven and wait.
Serves 4:
3 tsp olive oil, 4 large potatoes, 3 garlic cloves crushed, 2 onions thinly sliced, 8 eggs, 1 tbsp thyme, 1/2 tsp paprika, salt and pepper, mixed salad to serve
1. Peel the potatoes, place them in a sauce pan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer covered for about 10- 15 minutes or until cooked through. Drain and let cool;
2. Pre heat the oven to 180C;
3. Heat oil in a large frying pan. Add garlic and onion and cook for about 10-15 minutes on low- medium heat until soft. Season with salt and pepper and reserve;
4. Grease a round oven proof dish with olive oil.
5. In a bowl beat the eggs, season with thyme, pinch of paprika, salt and pepper and reserve;
6. Slice the potatoes lengthwise and place one layer on the bottom of the oven dish. Top with half of the onion mixture and 1/3 of the egg mixture. Repeat until you finish with the third layer of potatoes and the remaining 1/3 of the egg mixture. Sprinkle remaining paprika over the tortilla.
7. Bake for about 30--40 minutes or until top is golden. (check regularly to make sure eggs are cooked through)
Serve with some salad or rice. Enjoy.
