In a bowl we beat the eggs up to obtaining a good mixture. We add then the potatoes and the onion on the well-trodden eggs and remove well in order that he remains quite mixed and add salt if necessary.

A deep frying pan puts to the fire with two spoonfuls of extra virgin olive oil and when its warm we add the mix with eggs, potatoes and onion.

We lower the fire and add the mix with eggs, potatoes and onion, and move the frying pan with semicircular movements in order that the tortilla moves inside and does not stick.

When one part of the 'tortilla' is middle cook, we give the return to the 'tortilla' putting a dinner plate on the frying pan, like cover, and turning the frying pan on the plate. Now we will add again the tortilla, leaving her to slip carefully, from the plate to the frying pan.
