Tortilla de patatas- Spanish omelette

I got this recipe at the back of a cozy mystery about an English restauranter who serves up Spanish inspired seafood.  Since  I'd been salivating throughout the book, I had to try it out, but with a few modifications.

2 large potatoes

1 large onion

6 eggs

1 cup oil

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 tsp dry parsley

Method:

Wash and peel the potatoes, and chop it very fine. 

Heat the oil, and on a low flame, cook the potatoes till soft. 

Add the onions and fry some more. 

Meanwhile, whip the eggs with salt, pepper and parsley till frosty. 

Pour over the potatoes and mix well. 

Cover and let it cook on a low flame. When crisp, turn it over and cook the other side. 

Cut into wedges and serve. 

The recipe was a little greasy. Next time, I will boil the potatoes, and shallow fry the omelette.
