Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Course Breakfast
Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2-3 large potatoes, peeled and rinsed
  • ½ cup white onion, diced
  • 1 tbsp garlic
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 jalapeño, diced

Instructions
 

  • Slice your potatoes with a mandolin slicer or use a knife to slice the potato into very thin slices.
  • Add olive oil, garlic, onion and jalapeño to your frying pan. Cook on medium heat for a few minutes.
  • Add your potato slices into the pan and cook for 10-15 minutes until they are completely cooked through. Keep stirring throughout the cooking process.
  • You will know the potatoes are done cooking when they start to fall apart with the spatula.
  • While the potatoes are finishing up, crack 6 eggs into a mixing bowl. Whisk together thoroughly.
  • When the potatoes are done cooking, add them to the mixing bowl with the whisked eggs.
  • Mix the potato and egg mixture together.
  • For the next part, you will use the same pan you just used to fry the potatoes.
  • Turn the heat to a medium/low heat and add some olive oil to your pan (about 1 T).
  • Pour the egg/potato mixture into the pan.
  • You will need to let this cook and form in the pan for about 3-5 minutes. I usually scrape the edges when it is cooking/forming. Make sure it is pretty solid and held together before flipping.
  • The next step is to flip the entire tortilla over into the other frittata pan. Make sure to spray the other pan with a cooking spray - you don't want it to stick! Optional: You can heat the pan over the stove for a few minutes before the flip.
  • We have frittata pans that fit into each other, so it is super easy to flip. We just put the smaller one on top of the larger one, and flip!
  • Let the other side cook for 3-5 minutes.
  • Once it is done, you can slide it right out of the pan onto a plate. I recommend slicing it like a pizza into 8 different servings.
