Instructions

0 / 6 steps
  1. 1

    Heat 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil in an 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onion and potato; gently cook until softened, about 8 minutes.

  2. 2

    Stir in the green peas and cook for another 2 minutes until tender.

  3. 3

    In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs vigorously with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Transfer the cooked warm vegetable mixture into the beaten eggs, letting it sit for 2 minutes to soak.

  5. 5

    Add the remaining olive oil to the pan over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the edges are set.

  6. 6

    Carefully invert the tortilla onto a plate, slide it back into the pan, and cook the reverse side for 2 minutes until golden.
