Instruction

  • step 1 Heat half the oil in a frying pan, and sauté the onion over a medium heat until soft and pale gold – this will take about 8 mins
  • Remove from the pan, set aside, and add the potatoes to the pan
  • Cook until they are tender but not falling apart, carefully turning every so often
  • Cover the pan some of the time to help the slices cook through
  • Add the onions back to the pan along with the garlic and cook for another 4 mins
  • Tip into a bowl with the eggs, parsley and some seasoning and mix together
  • Leave to sit for half an hour
  • step 2 Meanwhile, put the cod in a saucepan and cover with water
  • Bring up to a simmer
  • Remove from the heat, cover and leave for 10 mins
  • Drain, leave to cool and remove the skin and any bones
  • Break into large flakes and add to the potato and egg mixture
  • step 3 Heat the rest of the oil in a non-stick frying pan
  • Pour in the tortilla mix and cook over a medium-low heat until it is just set and coming away from the sides of the pan
  • You might need to cover it to help the centre set
  • Be careful not to overcook it
  • Put a spatula underneath the tortilla every so often to make sure it isn’t sticking
  • Slide the tortilla onto a plate, then put the pan on top and flip the tortilla into it, uncooked side-down
  • Cook over a low heat until golden, or grill until just set
  • Leave to cool a little before serving
