    Spanish Ham TortillaPin

    Tortilla Española, or Spanish Tortilla, is traditional tapa in Spain. It is usually made with olive oil, potatoes, onions and eggs, but this time I made mine adding Hatfield Quality Meats baked ham to add more flavor. This is a simple and versatile dish, it can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and it’s delicious warm or at room temperature. It can also be cut into small cubes and served with toothpicks for a fun appetizer or party snack. Spanish Tortilla can be fried or baked. You can cook it on the top of the stove, but I prefer the oven because it’s easier, it doesn’t require a lot of oil and you don’t have to worry about ruining the tortilla when you flip it over.

    Ingredients
     

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 6 medium potatoes peeled and sliced
    • ½ yellow onion peeled and sliced
    • 2 cups of Hatfield baked ham cut into thin strips
    • 8 eggs
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Instructions
     

    • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in frying pan. Add the potato slices and stir to coat with oil. Cook for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    • Add the onions and mix well. Continue cooking for another 7 minutes.
    • Transfer the potato mixture to a plate.
    • In a bowl, whisk the eggs and the ham and potato mixture. Pre-heat the oven to 375F.
    • Pour the mixture into oven proof pans and place in the oven. Bake until cooked and golden on top. Baking time will vary based on the pan and thickness of the tortilla, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the tortilla from the oven. Let it rest for about 5 minutes and serve warm or cold.
