Spinach, Bacon and Potato Omelet: Tortilla de Papa y Carne de Cerdo con Espinaca
- 8 slices bacon
- 2 large potatoes diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon sofrito, (recommended, my blend; alternatively Goya Sofrito)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 10 eggs beaten
- 1 1/2 cups chopped spinach
- Crusty bread, for serving
- Preheat the broiler.
- Arrange the bacon on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Place under the broiler, cook for 4 minutes, remove from the oven and flip each piece to its opposite side.
- Place back under the broiler and cook until crisp.
- Remove from the baking sheet and drain on 3 paper towels.
- Set aside.
- Boil the potatoes in 2 to 3 cups of water until tender.
- Drain and set aside.
- In a 12-inch nonstick oven proof saute pan heat the olive oil and butter on medium heat.
- Add the sofrito and stir-fry until golden brown.
- Add the potatoes and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Beat the eggs until fluffy and add the spinach, mix well.
- Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and shake the pan a bit while the eggs begin to set.
- Using a heat resistant spatula pull the egg mixture from the sides of the pan slightly tipping the pan in the same direction allowing the eggs to fill up the space.
- Repeat 2 or 3 more times going around entire pan.
- Place the pan under the broiler for 10 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Cut into wedges and serve with warm crusty bread or whole-grain toast!
