Cookbook talk:Spanish Omelet

major change
Note the edit by 82.69.190.150 on 23 Feb 2005. I'm not sure if the recipe got any better or worse, but the method sure did change. This affects skill level, speed, and dirty dishes, along with a minor (?) change in the result.

suggested edit
I think one liter of oil is too much for an omlette. I know that olive oil is good for you but the are limits...

Olive oil
I'm Spanish and I've made a lot of tortillas de patata. I think that a liter of olive oil is too much. 250 ml is enough. And you can reuse the olive oil, since it is used for frying the potatoes.

I aslo suggest another change. Olive oil is the only oil you can use. Otherwise the taste is going to be worse. I know that outside Spain is expensive but is worth it!
