What do you have in mind...?
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Breakfast Recipe: Spanish Omelette

The Spanish omelette, or tortilla espaƱola in Spanish, is an omelette unlike most of us are used to. Instead of an egg pancake layered with ingredients then folded, this dish is much thicker, and typically includes potatoes. It's exactly what we had in mind today when thinking about a good, hearty breakfast. It's velvety, rich, and just melts in your mouth when cooked properly. Fortunately, it doesn't require too many ingredients and one omelette can serve 4, even if it can take a little time to cook. Trust us, though, it's worth it!

For today's recipe, we're using the strict traditional ingredients of potatoes and onions, but more vegetables (or even bacon) can absolutely be used to add some variety. If you feel like experimenting, we recommend adding some roasted red peppers and peas. To add extra flavor, serve olives, pickles, or even keep a little garlic mayonnaise to the side. Keep reading below for this simple recipe...



Spanish Omelette

Ingredients

    6 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
    1 1/2lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, quartered, and cut into 1/8" thick slices
    1 yellow onion, halved and sliced thin
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    8 large eggs

Throw in some finely sliced chorizo or some shrimp if you really want to boost it up a notch.  :laugh:

The real Cuban joints in Miami make these in their ovens, with chorizo (like EC said) and they stand about 4" tall.

It's a great snack around 3 AM when you've been out partaking of the offers of Miami nightlife.

If you ever find yourself in that situation, find La Ventanita at Versailles in Little Havana... it's open, and don't be surprised at who else you may see there.







Whatever you do, you have to remember that NO ONE jumps the Cuban coffee line at La Ventanita (the little window) at Versailles and gets away with it.


No one.

I could have sworn the original link in which I found the recipe mentioned it with tomatoes.

I thought tomatoes and basil...onions and bacon.

But I'm going to try it with what E.C. suggested.  Thanks!   :beer:

You'll like it! I do a slightly more Germanic one for breakfasts before school.

Your basic recipe, but chorizo, a few thin sliced fried mushrooms, tiny dash of Tabasco, and a good sprinkle of thyme and some chopped basil are added. A little diced ham if there is a slice left over from making the sandwiches. Sometimes add a little milk to the beaten eggs and apply a fine grating of cheese on the top just before it get's finished under the grill.

The kiddies usualy come here for breakfast, and it is cheap, quick, filling and they all love it.  :laugh:
