🍳 Spanish Omelette: Tradition Without Remorse

Spanish Omelette is the king of Spanish dishes, but its main downside is the amount of oil needed. In this \"fit\" version, we use the microwave to cook the potato in its own juice, achieving a tender and delicious texture without frying.

🌿 Why is it exceptionally healthy?

  • Fat Control: We eliminate saturated fats from prolonged frying.
  • Quality Protein: Egg is the reference protein, providing all essential amino acids.
  • Microwave Tech: Preserves potato nutrients better than deep frying.

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Step-by-Step Preparation

  1. Chopping: Peel and slice 3 medium potatoes into thin layers.
  2. Microwave Cooking: Place potatoes in a covered bowl. Cook for 10-12 minutes.
  3. Check: Ensure potatoes are tender.
  4. Beating: Beat 5 large eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt.
  5. Mixing: Incorporate hot potatoes into the egg and let rest for 2 minutes.
  6. Setting: Cook the omelette in a pan with a drizzle of EVOO.
