Chorizo Salami, Potato & Onion Tortilla with Tomato Salsa

100 g D’Orsogna Deli Fresh Chorizo Salami, diced
750 g Potatoes, washed, peeled and diced into 1 cm dice
2 Brown onions, finely sliced
375 ml Olive oil
4 Eggs
150 ml Cream
1 Flat leaf parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper

250 g Roma tomatoes, diced
2 tbsp Baby capers
1 tbsp Flat leaf parsley, chopped
2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper

Method

A well made Spanish tortilla is a thing of great simplistic beauty. The trick is to almost deep fry the onion and potato in olive oil before adding them to the egg mixture. Both ingredients take on the flavour of the oil and become meltingly soft. A tortilla should be less like an omelette with potato in it and more like potato and onion held together with eggs. D’Orsogna’s Chorizo Salami adds an authentic flavour of Spain and makes the tortilla substantial enough to eat as a meal on its own, or served in smaller wedges makes a great tapas dish.

1

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until moderately hot. Add the sliced onions and sauté until soft and beginning to brown. Remove the onions from the oil using a slotted spoon, allowing excess oil to drain back into the pan.

2

In the same oil, add diced potatoes and cook over medium heat until they begin to soften but still hold their shape. Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander to remove the excess oil. (You can store the leftover oil in a jar for future use).

3

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, diced chorizo, parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Gently stir in the drained potatoes and onions, making sure everything is well combined.

4

Grease a 24cm ovenproof frying pan or line a baking tray with parchment paper. Pour the egg and potato mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned.

5

While the tortilla bakes, prepare the salsa by mixing all the ingredients together and adjusting the seasoning to taste.

6

Once the tortilla is done, cut it into wedges and serve with the fresh tomato salsa on the side.
