Hi Jeri and all,

The tortilla in this case is the potatoes and eggs after they become an 
omelette. Not what we in the states call a tortilla which is more along the 
lines of Mexican cooking. If you are going to make this dish, I'd suggest 
having sighted assistance flipping the tortilla the first few times. It took me 
a while to get the hang of it, I use a special plate to accomplish this. I'm 
sorry I forgot to include this in the instructions. Thanks to my wonderful 
husband who told me the name of this plate. It is special because it has a 
handle on the bottom. This allows more control over the flipping process since 
I grip the pan with my right hand, and the plate with my left, holding both 
handles securely. Try doing this move with nothing in the pan. I practiced with 
an empty pan for a while. The name of this special plate is called Vuelve 
Tortillas. You can find it at a place called latienda.com. I will post a recipe 
for Gazpacho later in the week. I love tortilla de patatas it was the fi
 rst dish my husband made for me, when we were engaged.

My birds are winged blessings, they help me soar!
