Spanish potato omelette is a good breakfast and night food that saves a long evening, but in addition to these, it is also a great lunch, dinner, a small savory dish to share or a hearty meal eaten entirely on its own. It’s already versatile food!
This is the opinion of chef Risto Mikkola. He combines pre-cooked potato slices, a good amount of egg, a little milk and cream, salt and olive oil in the potato omelette.
In addition to potato and egg, Mikkola adds mushrooms to the omelette. He praises the quality of the mushrooms sold in the shops. According to Mikkola, Finnish edible mushrooms and shiitakes are excellent.
This time, Mikkola prepares the tortilla by first toasting the ingredients. Potatoes and mushrooms taste even better in the oven.
Mikkola doesn’t peel potatoes. A good wash is enough.
– Peeling is absolutely pointless. It just takes time. Besides, I think the potato tastes better with the skin on. You can eat potatoes with their skins all year round, not just in summer, Mikkola reminds.

No gimmicky dishes are offered with the tortilla. Salad and crusty bread go great. If you want, you can roast the peppers and make them into a delicious paste. Roasting the paprika really deepens its flavor. After roasting, it is easy to remove the skin from the paprika, as long as you let it cool a little first.
